Book Overview

Hungarian Rhapsody is set during a time of post-war change and cultural transformation in New York City. The story follows Cheska Halasz, a talented young musician with a dream to perform at Carnegie Hall. As a full scholarship student at Letham School of Music, Cheska soon learns that success in the world of classical music isn't just about raw talent-it's about confidence, survival, and navigating the competitive, often cutthroat environment of the industry. Born to an immigrant family, she faces both external and internal obstacles that make her question her path. Surrounded by a diverse group of peers, each struggling with their own doubts and dreams, Cheska and her classmates embark on a journey of self-discovery. Along the way, they learn that finding their true purpose often means finding strength in each other.

About Amanda Adams

Amanda Adams lives in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, where she took early retirement in 2000, was divorced from her second husband and resumed her maiden name. While rearing her four children she attended Writers Workshops and had an essay published in the Good Old Days magazine. She later attended Coe College, where she had a couple of essays appear in college publications, and also won a prize for another essay, The Fertile Field, later published in The Appalachian Log. As a child she had a dream in which she had written a book, and feels this book about her family, including her brother's and sister's writings, is the fulfillment of that childhood dream. About The Fertile Field essay, she says "What I didn't include in the essay was the thought that came to me that day that I had to remember this place because one day I would write about it."
