Music, intoxication, and betrayal combine in this “immersive, impassioned” (The Guardian) debut novel inspired by the true story of Anna Maria della Pietà, a Venetian orphan and violin prodigy who studied under Antonio Vivaldi and ultimately became his star musician—and his biggest muse. “The Instrumentalist is more than a history lesson—with this novel, Constable has crafted an engrossing tale about an unexpected coup de musique.” —The New York Times Anna Maria della Pietà was destined to drown in one of Venice’s canals. Instead, she became the greatest violinist of the 18th century. Anna Maria has only known life inside the Pietà, an orphanage for children born of prostitutes. But the girls of the Pietà are lucky in a sense: most babies born of their station were drowned in the city’s canals. And despite the strict rules, the girls are given singing and music lessons from an early age. The most promising musicians have the chance to escape the fate of the rest: forced marriage to anyone who will have them. Anna Maria is determined to be the best violinist there is—and whatever Anna Maria sets out to do, she achieves. After all, the stakes for Anna could not be higher. But it is 1704 and she is a girl. The pursuit of her ambition will test everything she holds dear, especially when it becomes clear that her instructor, Antonio Vivaldi, will teach Anna everything he knows—but not without taking something in return. From the opulent palaces of Venice to its mud-licked canals, The Instrumentalist is a “searing portrait of ambition and betrayal” (Elizabeth MacNeal, author of The Doll Factory). It is the story of one woman’s irrepressible ambition and rise to the top. It is also the story of the orphans of Venice who overcame destitution and abuse to make music, and whose contributions to some of the most important works of classical music, including “The Four Seasons,” have been overlooked for too long. For fans of The Queen’s Gambit and Fingersmith, The Instrumentalist is an “enthralling, passionate, vivid” (Kiran Millwood Hargrave, author of The Mercies) exploration of art and ambition, genius and exploitation, and loss and triumph.

For fans of The Queen’s Gambit and The Handmaid’s Tale, award-winning journalist Harriet Constable’s unforgettable novel tells the story of classical music as it has never been told before. Inspired by true events, The Instrumentalist tells the story of Anna Maria della Pietà—orphan, musical prodigy and favourite student of Antonio Vivaldi. Anna Maria is on a mission: to become Venice’s greatest violinist and composer. In her remarkable world of colour and sound, it seems as if nothing can stop her. But it is 1704 and she is, after all, a girl. The pursuit of her ambition will test everything Anna Maria holds dear. With echoes of internationally renowned historical fiction such as Tuscan Daughter by Lisa Rochon, Hamnet by Maggie O’Farrell and Perfume by Patrick Süskind, The Instrumentalist brings to life the remarkable story of one of classical music’s most important yet overlooked figures. It is guaranteed to transport even the most unmusical of readers into a whole other realm.

A documentary history that studies the series of laws passed by the US Congress to establish the federal immigration and naturalization policies which have been put into effect since the founding of the nation--legislation which has been designed increasingly to restrict and curtail immigration, and which has been particularly harsh on Asian immigrants since its inception. Complete chapters are devoted to each major piece of legislation from the Reconstruction era to the Immigration Act of 1965. Documents attached to the end of each essay treat particular topics related to it. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
