About the Book

Based on the life of cornet player Buddy Bolden, one of the legendary jazz pioneers of New Orleans, this novel is a recreation of a remarkable musical life and a tragic conclusion. Michael Ondaatje builds a picture of a man who by day worked in a barber shop and at night unleashed his talent.
