The Horn, Paperback / softback Book

Description

Edgar Pool is the Horn, the greatest tenor saxophonist of his generation, the man who created bop and who has become a myth for younger musicians.

The Horn lives no life but jazz, his nights are spent in the crowded nightclubs of New York where the wistful, throaty sounds of his saxophone speak of the desires and pasts of his audience.

After being out-played for the first time by a younger man the Horn sets out to stumble through New York for the last time.

As his friends and lovers search for him they remember his life, and try to find the truth of his brilliant and tragic career.

The Horn is a brilliant evocation of the world of jazz and a vivid memorial to the musicians who created it.
