I knew by January 3 that I was going to love this book. By spring I was starting to dread the turning of pages. In September I hated to think that the book would be coming to an end.
You know the feeling you have when you wish a book was but the first in a series? That's how I felt about Year of Wonder. I could have gone on reading this book every day forever.
I found a copy of the book at the end of November. I also got a copy of the audiobook, thinking that it would include a bit of each piece, but, no, it did not. I found a playlist on Spotify that included almost all of the pieces in the book, and so my adventure began. Year of Wonder is a compilation of a short writing about a piece of music for each day of the year. I read the daily essay and then listened on Spotify to the musical selection. And I marked each selection that I especially liked and made a playlist of my own on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/52o....
I will look for more from Clemency Burton-Hill.
