Sophie Chen Keller was first published at the age of fifteen, with a short story in Glimmer Train literary magazine. A classically trained pianist, she was born in China and raised in California; after graduating from Harvard, she lived in New York City and Beijing before moving to Germany, where she currently resides with her husband and two children. She is the author of one previous novel, The Luster of Lost Things.

With characters so finely crafted that you feel their joys and their sorrows, LITTLE WONDER examines what is like to lose someone and what it’s like to be lost. As readers, we feel the fear of navigating an unfamiliar world, the anxiety of performance, the kindness of strangers, the love of a mother and a son and the remarkable ability of music to heal our wounds. Sophie Chen Keller writes with a musicality that reflects the tale it tells. A wonderful story and an extraordinary read
