Synopsis
Orfe and Enny were best friends as youngsters. Orfe knew she wanted to be famous for her songs and that Enny would help her. After losing touch for many years, one day Enny came across her friend singing on a street corner and decided to help her start a band. But Orfe's love for Yuri, a recovering drug addict distracted her from her music. As related by Enny, Orfe's story is as compelling as the myth from which it is derived.

Review
"Kirkus Reviews" Starred review A powerful novel -- brief and deceptively easy to read -- that's fashioned with imagination and skill.
"The Horn Book" This is an unusual love story, given depth by Voigt's great skill in characterization and by its parallels to the Greek myth on which it is based.
