joanna912 's review for:

The Art of Hearing Heartbeats by Jan-Philipp Sendker
4.0

The Art of Hearing Heartbeats is a touching, beautifully written novel. Four years after her father disappears, Julia follows his trail to Burma where her father was born and spent his first 20 years. Upon arriving she is greeted by U Ba who begins to tell her a tale of a boy, his multiple losses, his blindness and his deep love for a crippled woman, Mi Mi.
