It is the late 1850s and a young Irishman, having abandoned his studies for the priesthood, arrives in New Harmony, Indiana in the afterglow of its utopian experiment and soon finds himself both in love with the town’s most alluring woman and immersed in the horrifying violence of war. Told with the counterpointing narrative of his sister on the home front and shaped from a wealth of national and local documents, Suite Harmonic: A Civil War Novel of Rediscovery brings a rare intensity and accuracy to a soldier’s battlefield experience and an immigrant’s fraught quest to find his place in a new land.
