Gone: A Girl, A Violin, A Life Unstrung, a memoir by Min Kym, a story of grief. What makes Ms. Kym's journey unique is that she is a virtuoso violinist, and her grief surrounds the theft of her Stradivarius violin. The single minded focus of a virtuoso is both the strength and weakness of this book for that focus embeds in the writing style. However, I am so glad to be introduced to Ms. Kym's performances, and her music will remain part of the music of my life.
