In the new novel by Ariel Buteau, Japanese brevity is intertwined with French charm. It is like a Japanese melody quietly floating over the roofs of Paris - mystery, sadness and tenderness... The music world is shocked: on Sunday morning in one of the hotels in Venice, Eric and Hisako, famous pianists who had just triumphantly completed a large concert tour, were found dead. Everything points to suicide, but what is the reason? The Frenchman and the Japanese woman met at the conservatory, where they were predicted to have a great future. They were united by love and music - a happy couple in life, a brilliant duet on stage. What led to such a tragic ending? “Samuraisha” is an exquisite drama about the fragility of talent, the vulnerability of love, self-sacrifice and music. A book for refined natures.
