A work of beautiful lyrical and musical accents written in Chopin's voice, Manuscript in Dreams/Study of Chopin, sheds light on highly meaningful moments and aspects of the composer's life and work. The author has knowledgeably threaded together "manuscripts that appeared to her in dreams...": an ensemble of intimate pieces subtly combined in an engaging kaleidoscope of memoir, narrative and poetry.
