Summary of The Magic Strings of Frankie Presto by Mitch Albom | Includes Analysis
Preview:
The Magic Strings of Frankie Presto by Mitch Albom is a novel about the fictional
musician Frankie Presto and his amazing journey through music and life. Frankie’s
life story is told from the perspective of music, a fictional narrator. This is fitting,
given that Frankie was one of the world’s greatest guitarists.
The story, however, begins at its end: Frankie has died during a music festival.
During a performance, his body levitates and then drops to the stage. The novel
opens at Frankie’s funeral, where music-industry figures—including nonfictional
musicians such as Lyle Lovett and Ingrid Michaelson—have gathered to pay their
respects and share their thoughts about the deceased guitarist. Music, the narrator,
uses the opportunity of the funeral to reflect on Frankie’s life…
