This is another paragraph Product Description: This tale interweaves the lives of two unusual children: Esther, whose father walked out of her London home without a word; and Linus, bullied by his father, spoiled by his adoring but eccentric uncles and aunts, and growing up in Stockholm, longing to be an architect. n nFrom the Publisher nRecent reviews for Frozen Music n'Cobbold's first-person novel takes her heroine, Esther, from lonely childhood to life in her mid-thirties as a magazine journalist. Her story is paralleled by that of Linus, a Swedish boy, as both are idealists and outsiders, you suspect from the start that they will end up together. Esther is a woman who thinks she knows the rules, until a series of events forces her to see cause and effect in every gesture, and paralyses her with indecision;Linus is a man with a clear, bright dream, which Esther nearly destroys.
