The Memory of Whiteness by Kim Stanley RobinsonDescription: Arthur Holywelkin, a brilliant physicist, devoted the last years of his life to creating a strange, beautiful
musical instrument called The Orchestra. Hundreds of years later, in a universe centered around
music, Johannes Wright is chosen as the Ninth Master of Holywelkin's Orchestra. Wright must travel
the solar system pursued by enemies in the name of a destiny he understands only imperfectly.
The Christian Science Monitor put it well: "No music lover will be able to resist this intellectual
whodunit."
