Have you read the novel Piranesi by Susanna Clarke? No? Then I suggest, kindly but firmly, that you do. This piano piece is inspired by that mind-expanding story, and it attempts to capture something of the atmosphere of the House and of the psychological journey of the individual once known as Matthew Rose Sorensen.
