The Song Collector by Natasha Solomons . Review

This is the story of one family and it goes back and forth in time from 1946 to present day. 
This is about a family who own a large estate in the country but who are struggling to maintain it , they try to maintain this huge estate as  best they can but it takes huge effort. Harry , Jack, George, Edie and Sal make up the characters from the past and in present day Fox, Robin and Clara make up the majority of the story. Clara is fox's daughter and Robin is his very young gifted grandson who excels as a pianist from the moment his fingers touch the keys aided by his musical grandfather who finds this young boys enthusiam just what he needs as a distraction now that he is grieving for the love of his life.
All characters from the past are liked to those in the present and when you put it altogether we see a story about grief, forgiveness, hope and joy. Simply beautiful!
