A novel about the life of the Norshtein-Khrapovitsky family, simple and complex at the same time, like millions of other people. The slowly unfolding narrative is a family saga with the drama of the Soviet era, the undercurrents of which carried some to the pinnacle of power and drowned others.
From the title of the novel “The Accompanist” it is clear that the atmosphere in which the characters live is musical. On its pages, along with characters created by the writer’s imagination, famous names appear - Tikhon Khrennikov, Dmitry Shostakovich, Svyatoslav Richter, Heinrich Neuhaus and others.
The intertwined destinies of the heroes find themselves connected by unexpected threads.
