About the Book

What's the price of chasing a dream? Nora Costello is a gifted soprano who longs to sing on Broadway despite her family's disapproval and her daily battle with self- doubt. When her beloved older brother dies in Vietnam, she spirals into despair, wondering how she'll embrace her performing goals without the support of her sole cheerleader. But before she hits rock bottom, Nora meets her soulmate, Bart Wheeler, a washed-up Broadway baritone with problems of his own-and a trove of great advice about singing. Nora also reunites with her oldest friend Liz, a troubled nun who knows more about Liam's motives than she should. Both a coming-of-age-story and a tale of enduring love, THE VOICE I JUST HEARD offers characters to root for as Nora, Bart, and Liz struggle to resolve their dilemmas. In the end, it's a book about the most important voice of all: the whisper of our hearts guiding our way.
About the Author: Susan Dormady Eisenberg is an arts journalist who has written about opera and theater for "Opera News," "Classical Singer," and "Huffington Post." REVIEWS: (1)"Beautifully written with poignancy and humor, THE VOICE I JUST HEARD opens with a tragic event that tears a family apart and threatens to derail the dreams of a young woman. She persists in her journey of love, hope, and healing. Colorful and romantic, the characters literally sing off the page." -- Louise Nayer, Author of BURNED, A Memoir (2) "In a summer tent theater in 1970, a girl who doubts her talent yet longs to be a musical star meets a handsome baritone who has diverted his own dreams into a day job. Their magical relationship leads this luminous novel of friendship, family, and faith. THE VOICE I JUST HEARD is a deeply felt coming-of-age love story." -- Stephanie Cowell, author of CLAUDE & CAMILLE and MARRYING MOZART (3) "The book presents fascinating and rare insights into the world of musical theater and opera..." -- Kirkus (4) "THE VOICE I JUST HEARD is a debut of epic proportions, with a story that takes readers behind the scenes of theater and opera through an emotional journey of losing a brother at one of the most controversial times in U.S. history - the Vietnam War...From the stage in Cohoes, NY, to Washington, D.C., Nora and Bart grow into themselves and their voices - voices that are their own and remind them of where they belong. When overture sounds and the cast steps on the stage, the voices in this novel will sweep the reader away into an operatic crescendo like no other." -- Serena M. Agusto-Cox, Savvy Verse & Wit
