Psalm at Journey’s End
ABOUT
THE BOOK
A vividly imagined, gripping novel about the ship’s orchestra on the Titantic, doomed to play to the very last. On April 10 1912, seven musicians board the Titanic. They are a motley crew, coming from across Europe to play on the maiden voyage of the world’s largest passenger ship. During their final five days, their life stories gradually unfold each musician embodying one private part of the mosaic that is Europe on the edge of the century.
Original title in Norwegian Salme ved reisens slutt published byJ.W. Cappelens Forlag (1990)
