Summary
Erik Satie begins life with every possible advantage. But after his mother's early death and his father's breakdown upend his childhood, Erik and his younger siblings--Louise and Conrad--are scattered. Later, as an ambitious young composer, Erik flings himself into the Parisian art scene, aiming for greatness but achieving only notoriety. As the years pass, he alienates those in his circle as often as he inspires them. Only Louise and Conrad are steadfast allies, and together they strive to maintain their faith in their brother's talent
