About this product

Product Information

Winner of The Women's Prize for Fiction and the PEN/Faulkner Award for Fiction. The poignant - and at times very funny - novel from the author of The Dutch House and Commonwealth. Somewhere in South America, at the home of the country's vice president, a lavish birthday party is being held in honour of the powerful businessman Mr. Hosokawa. Roxane Coss, opera's most revered soprano, has mesmerised the international guests with her singing. It is a perfect evening - until a band of gun-wielding terrorists takes the entire party hostage. But what begins as a panicked, life-threatening scenario slowly evolves into something quite different, a moment of great beauty, as terrorists and hostages forge unexpected bonds and people from different continents become compatriots, intimate friends, and lovers.

Bel Canto by Ann Patchett Review
Not quite what I expected - but surprisingly engrossing. The storyline is based on a hostage / guerilla incident in which a considerably sized group of well-heeled guests are confined. What is surprising is that it looks not only at the lives, situations and coping strategies of the victims, but also flips the coin to look more closely at the lives, motivation and naivety of their captors. It's not the fast-paced adventure story I expected, but is compelling reading none the less!
