If " 'The Piano Teacher' " adjacent" isn't a genre yet, it should be. And this book occupies it :>>>>

It’s not quite The Piano Teacher, but it is approaching that sort of territory for sure

IT HELPS WITH THE BLUES, by @bryanonion.bsky.social is a quiet, contemplative read, perfect for fall. (And the audiobook version is coming out very soon! 👀) "infused with midwestern atmosphere, but relatable to anyone who's been any sort of teenager in any place."
