Rhapsody / Mitchell James Kaplan.

Summary:

1924. Katharine "Kay" Swift, restless but loyal society wife of wealthy banker James Warburg and a serious pianist who longs for recognition, attends a concert. The piece: Rhapsody in Blue. The composer: a brilliant, elusive young musical genius named George Gershwin. Unable to resist the magnetic pull of George's talent, charm, and swagger, Kay embarks on a ten-year love affair with him. Her life is complicated by her conflicted loyalty to her husband and the twists and turns of her own musical career. The affair ends only with George's death from a brain tumor at the age of thirty-eight. -- Adapted from jacket.
