The Upright Piano Player BOOK GIVEAWAY

Thanks to Liz at Doubleday, I am hosting a giveaway for David Abbott’s The Upright Piano Player. Not one but two winners.

Rules:
Open to US residents only.
Must be a follower of my blog (yes, I do check)
And you must leave a comment with your email address.
Oh, and the contest ends, Tuesday, June 28th

Here’s a little bit about the book that I borrowed from Amazon:

An adroit first novel of exceptional grace and emotional power by a legendary British ad executive.

“David Abbott’s The Upright Piano Player is a wise and moving debut, an accomplished novel of quiet depths and resonant shadows.” —John Burnham Schwartz, author of The Commoner and Reservation Road

Henry Cage seems to have it all: a successful career, money, a beautiful home, and a reputation for being a just and principled man. But public virtues can conceal private failings, and as Henry faces retirement, his well-ordered life begins to unravel. His ex-wife is ill, his relationship with his son is strained to the point of estrangement, and on the eve of the new millennium he is the victim of a random violent act which soon escalates into a prolonged harassment.
