Free (nook/Kindle) More Than You Know [African-American Jazz Period Literary Novel]

[ATDrake]

More Than You Know by Rosalyn Story is her 2004 debut literary fiction novel, exploring the decades-long tensions in an African-American family from the 1950s to the 1990s, centred around a jazz saxophonist whose long-hidden personal secrets threaten to destroy the marriage he must work to rebuild with his wife, free courtesy of publisher Agate.

Apparently, this is a bit of a structurally experimental novel, told in interspersing flashbacks, and I like how the chapter headers have musical phrases.

This has previously been offered free in both 2012 and again in 2013.

Currently free, probably just until the weekend @ B&N (may also drop in the UK) and Amazon (not available to Canadians this time around, but also free in the UK), and may possibly show up later as a DRM-free PDF download directly @ the publisher's webcatalogue page, as Agate freebies sometimes do.

Description
A sweeping love story about how long-buried family secrets devastate the marriage of a brilliant musician and his wife.

Homeless L.J. Tillman is a jazz saxophonist whose life has been torn apart. When the painful secret that L.J. had kept all his life had finally been revealed, it shattered his marriage to Olivia, a promising singer who works as a beautician.

More Than You Know is the elegantly crafted story of how this troubled couple rescues their marriage: shaken to the core, they discover that truth conforms to its own rules, and that love can endure even the most profound injuries. Rosalyn Story, herself a successful musician, has created a lyrical, emotionally consuming page-turner that delves deeply into the mysteries of love, family, and marriage.
