Part Michael Chabon's The Mysteries of Pittsburgh and part Fitzgerald's This Side of Paradise, Lost and Found will appeal to anyone who's experienced the push-pull nature of love and the thrill of self-discovery. Lost and Found is partly a story about loss: of love, innocence, parents, and children. But it is perhaps more a story about finding those same things, if in different forms. The plot centers around two men--Jacob, a father-less freshman entering college, and Yuri, Jacob's aging but devilish music history professor--who discover a mysterious, unsigned piano score that Yuri is convinced has great historic, and likely monetary, value. All is not golden, however, as Jacob and Yuri soon realize that someone else is onto their discovery. On the outs with a cunning and vengeful University Dean, Yuri insists on pushing forward in order to save his career, but Jacob has his doubts about whether the escapade will be worth it. Nevertheless, he has grown close to Yuri, and decides to leap before looking, a decision that will impact his academic, social, and romantic well-being in unexpected ways. Their lives now entwined, Yuri and Jacob attempt to uncover the score's origins, along the way discovering much about life, loss, and ultimately, love.
