Ali's Reviews > Symphony of Secrets

A well-intended book that was far longer than it needed to be. I have heard nothing but good things about Slocumb's first book, which I am still eager to read; however this story was too long-winded. I liked what Slocumb was trying achieve in bringing attention to the ways in which marginalized artists' work can be stolen by artists in power (primarily white male artists). Still, the storyline was predictable and kept going on and on. Had it been more concise, I think I would have had a somewhat better reading experience-- it is clear Slocumb is a talented writer, but this needed some trimming.
