Charlie listened all through his boyhood, and as he grew into a man, he found he wanted to re-create in music the sounds that he heard every day. But others couldn't hear what Charlie heard. They didn't hear it as music -- only as noise. In this daring and original book, Mordicai Gerstein graphically translates the audible into the visible -- filling his pictures with noise -- to tell the story of Charles Ives (1874-1954), a great musical innovator who let neither criticism nor public scorn keep him from composing music that expressed all that he heard in the world. He was finally recognized with a Pulitzer Prize in 1947.
