Strange Mr. Satie

(1) 4-6 Illustrated by Petra Mathers. Anderson's clear, direct text invites the reader to enter the reality of the complex and notoriously mercurial French composer Erik Satie, and we find ourselves rooting for him--terrible temper, unconventional hygiene, and all. Both author and illustrator seem to have channeled Satie's spirit of risk-taking in their verbal and visual depictions of the composer's artistry. Author's note, suggestions for further reading and listening.
