If you are learning Italian and enjoy a good book, pick up a copy of La ragazza al pianoforte, a bilingual graded reader for intermediate and advanced learners. With its exciting twists and turns of plot and very relatable characters, The girl at the piano will keep you wanting to turn the page.
La ragazza al pianoforte tells the story of Vera, a strong woman determined to plumb the very depths of her being. She is not afraid to face her sub-conscious nor to unravel and understand her dreams; but, she can be reckless - especially in regard to men. On the other hand, Lara, her best friend, is hopelessly caught in a seemingly rock solid, teenage-style love affair with Diego, a married man. She has chosen to drown out that wise inner voice which speaks and guides through dreams and so has abandoned her two greatest passions, music and dance. Feeling empty and sad, Lara also faces the reality of having a friend who has a completely different way of life; different in ways that she can neither define nor comprehend. Slowly, Lara emerges from the lethargy into which she had taken refuge and she begins to rediscover music. Her dreams become meaningful, and true to their well-known reputation, quite prescient. In the end, nothing can stop the flow of positive energy that seems to sweep her up as she rides the powerful wave to her newly discovered happiness.
The book is split into chapters with pages on the left written in Italian facing the English translation on the right. This parallel layout will help you enjoy your reading uninterrupted by constant dictionary searches. An opportunity to relax while you learn.
