Set in the contemporary classical music world of New York City and Tanglewood, Ghost Quartet centers on the Faustian struggles of Ray Stoneson, an ambition thirty-two-year old composer. When Ray meets Perry Green, an internationally renowned, considerably older gay conductor who is desperately attracted to him, both of their lives change. Perry offers to further Ray's career in exchange for a relationship; but when Ray complies, it threatens his love for Joy, the beautiful singer he longs to marry.

Recensioner i media

Moral and psychological issues are examined in the light of sympathetic, utterly convincing men and women caught up in emotional dramas not always of their choosing. --Joyce Carol Oates Burgin's steady and strong writing brings the story to a magnificent climax. . . . Never didactic and never failing to sustain a most suspenseful story, Burgin pressures these characters for al they're worth. Ghost Quartet is a compelling story that demands contemplation. --Harvard Review "I read Ghost Quartet in a whirlwind, for that's what the novel did to me. The book is fast and furious, interesting and bright, a go-ahead, well-plotted, strong, intense story." --Stephen Dixon
