Books by Sanford Friedman
The world premiere of American author Sanford Friedman's last novel, 'compiled' from fictional notes written to Ludwig van Beethoven in his last years. Friedman's book depicts Beethoven's tempestuous relationships with friends, servants, family--and, in particular, his young nephew--in a manner never attempted before, and the result is a colorful, hilarious, and surprisingly poignant historical fiction.
