Klappentext
The Girl From Melodia
A literary tragedy of obsession, music, and the love that destroys.
England / France 1992. At the Tulle festival, the troubled folk musician Martyn Lockhart meets Françoise Audrey-a French singer whose voice is a revelation. Her melodies are raw, luminous, alive. His are rigid, starved, desperate. What begins as breathless love curdles into possession, and a ravenous jealousy grows.
Told through Martyn's fevered recollections and Françoise's hidden diary, The Girl From Melodia is a slow, exquisite heartbreak. There is no redemption here-only the echo of a voice silenced too soon, and the man who learns too late that some muses cannot be caged.
Content note: Themes of emotional manipulation, illness, and doomed love. This is not a romance with a happy ending.
For readers interested in the mind of the self-destructive musician, this is an elegy to the art we kill to create.
