Chopin in the Attic

Born into a South Boston Irish family in 1950, Belle O'Shane attends a good Catholic school, studies ballet in downtown, adores debate and literature, but is sent away to a convent in Quebec because she is unique. She sees and feels what others cannot. She daily experiences God in a separate reality-or does she? Soon, her fragile state of mind and her body become the private laboratory of a Harvard medical student-an event that is bound to change not only her life.
