Love is Blind follows the fortunes of Brodie Moncur, a young Scottish musician. Moving from Paris to St Petersburg to Edinburgh and back again, during an era of overwhelming change as the 19th century becomes the 20th. A tale of passion and brutal revenge; of artistic endeavour and the illusions it creates; of all the possibilities that life offers and how cruelly they can be snatched away. A masterly new novel from one of Britain's best loved storytellers.
