A handsome first edition/first printing in unread Fine condition in Fine dust-jacket. Signed by author Kate Ross directly on the title page.

In this beautifully written and deeply thoughtful book, Ross and Kate take on the question of why we connect so profoundly with music- and with the devil in particular. Tracing the history of the devil and music from the classical to the modern eras, they explore the ways in which music can both liberate and enslave us, and reveal how our understanding of the devil has evolved over time.

This book is a fascinating exploration of the ways in which music can both liberate and enslave us, and reveals how our understanding of the devil has evolved over time. Ross and Kate's writing is beautiful and deeply thoughtful, and the book is a fascinating exploration of the ways in which music can both liberate and enslave us.; 8vo; Signed by Author.
