"The men with the piano look up the narrow staircase of our little flat and they turn to Dad, light their fags, and say: 'We might have to take the windows out.' When Lylah was a little girl, a piano came through the sky and landed in her council flat. Ever since then, the piano's been her centre: a centre she comes back to after days of being good good good at her posh private school, or naughty with her cousins on the estate, or when Mum and Dad are too tired and distracted to answer her questions. It stays her centre as she grows up and moves through the world, until one day Lylah starts to wonder where her piano came from-- and their shared history comes tumbling into the light." --
