Reception
The book received positive reviews from critics. The Guardian praised the book, adding that "in 288 pages, Tunbridge gives us detail enough to create a rounded portrait. She challenges, by example rather than theory, the presumption that Beethoven was curmudgeonly, friendless, loveless."[1] The London Evening Standard called it "a rich accompaniment to [Beethoven's] music"[2] and The Times called it thought-provoking.[3]
