The Forest of Wool and Steel by Natsu Miyashita

3.0

As you follow the journey of a piano tuner’s apprentice, you learn along with him the highs and lows of learning a new skill. Tomura-kun is an interesting protagonist and keeps you interested, his thoughts, feelings and opinions as he goes through a life-changing journey is a joy to read. For someone who has played the piano before and understands the inner workings somewhat, the music theory that is touched upon throughout this novel is truly enlightening and reminded me of the feeling that pressing keys to produce a sound gives you. Very poetic, a nice palette cleanse and a mindful read.
