Orfeo by Richard Powers

3.0

I thought this was definitely an interesting read, especially given my dual love of classical music and microbiology (but conversely to Peter Els, microbiology is my career and music is a hobby). I learned a lot and I liked the narrative that took us through his life. While I enjoyed this book, I'm not sure that I would recommend it to others, mostly because although interesting, it on the whole wasn't all that compelling.
