Page One: The Cellist of Sarajevo, Steven Galloway (Knopf)

Next week, please join me for five full days of Giller, one sighting a day for each of the titles nominated for this year’s prize: Joseph Boyden for Through Black Spruce, Anthony De Sa for Barnacle Love, Marina Endicott for Good to a Fault, Rawi Hage for Cockroach, and Mary Swan for The Boys in the Trees.

This is the second of two weeks during which I respond to some of my first page sightings. I note only the first sentence, and structure my response to use the same number of words.

Here we go!
