Attention to the detail is obvious on every page and I wanted to take my time over every page to make sure I wasn't missing anything. Very little is spelled out so it can mean a lot of things to a lot of different people. And eventually you find out what happened that causes the newsflash at the start.Ĭhopsticks is a book that makes you think about what you are looking at, and what it means to the story. She continues to play Chopsticks while there but also seems to become obsessed with Frank. But this seems to backfire as Glory ruins her concerts by refusing to play or only playing Chopsticks repeatedly.Įventually, the Chopsticks playing forces her father to send her to a recuperation facility for piano players (which seems rather niche). Glory's father, however, definitely does not approve of their relationship, and packs Glory off on a European tour to get her away from him.

They turn to each other to escape their problems. He didn't want to move in the first place and is now rebelling at school. Frank, himself, has a few problems of his own. Through the drawings and IM chats, you can feel Glory fall deep and fast for this boy.

New neighbours move in next door from Argentina, and Glory is drawn to the son, Frank Mendoza. Since her mother died, it seems that Glory has lost the plot and is starting to resent her father's rigorous plan to not lose her prodigy status as she grows up. It is very much using the old adage of 'a picture tells a thousand words'.Ī piano-prodigy, Glory, is taken around the world by her father to play in the most famous concert halls. It is not a book in the normal sense, but a story told through photos, newspaper clippings, videos and letters.
