"A tale of immigrants centred on an accordion brought to America in the 1880s. After its Italian owner is murdered, the instrument passes into the hands of other ethnic groups -- German, French-Canadian, Mexican, Polish, Norwegian -- and the novel describes their ceremonies, dreams and hates. By the author of The Shipping News." (Publisher's Website)
