El protagonista de la novel�la troba el piano de so vellutat que sempre havia volgut en una petita botiga del barri de Gr�cia. En Janusz Borowski, un home misteri�s nascut en un bosc a l’est de Pol�nia, l’adverteix que es tracta d’un piano molt especial que ha de cuidar. El piano de cua, amb el n�mero de s�rie 31887, �s un Grotrian-Steinweg constru�t a Brunsvic (Alemanya) l’any 1915. La descoberta d’un secret ocult al seu interior el portar� a iniciar un llarg viatge en un relat que recorre la hist�ria d’Europa del segle xx.

Hist�ria d’un piano �s una novel�la captivadora sobre la for�a d’un instrument que esdev� una met�fora del poder de redempci� a trav�s de l’amor, de l’amistat, de la bellesa i, per descomptat, de la m�sica.

�L’�nic que volia era ser all� quan el seu fill arrib�s. Volia ser all� igual que hi havia estat totes les vegades que en Johannes havia tornat de Leipzig. Si abans no havia fallat mai, ara encara menys.

Asseguda al banc central de l’andana, pensava en com es llan�aria a sobre d’ell, en com l’abra�aria amb totes les seves forces i en com, si no fos per la seva complexi� robusta, seria capa� de trencar-lo en mil bocins�.

�La construcci� �s ambiciosa i convincent. Hi desfila la hist�ria europea del segle xx�. Carles Casajuana

�Una de les novel�les catalanes m�s importants que he llegit en molts anys. Cada p�gina est� bellament escrita�. Pere Gimferrer

�En Ramon Gener no ha fet un llibre de temporada, ha escrit una novel�la per sempre�. Gerard Quintana

�Una hist�ria destinada a enamorar molts lectors. Un gran Premi Ramon Llull�. Isona Passola

�La combinaci� de la perip�cia personal dels protagonistes amb la hist�ria europea �s molt destacable, aix� com el pacifisme que se’n despr�n�. N�ria Pradas

�T� for�a. T� m�gia. Destaca per la construcci� del relat i per la capacitat d’emocionar-nos. Un plantejament literari d’alt nivell�. Carme Riera
