Final Post: The Soloist

Finally, I have reached the end of this wonderful novel. Being that this is one of the top most inspirational books I have ever read, I feel almost compelled to write to Mr. Lopez himself for updates on how Nathaniel is doing. Of all the evils that are inflicted upon so many good people daily, there is nothing more joyous then to establish some sort of faith in this world: the life of music. In addition, stories like this bring hope to those who don't have any. Although Nathaniel Ayers was living in a hell on earth, life was still able to turn around for him again. Of course he will never fully recover, but he now lives in an apartment, has his own music studio, and has many opportunities to hear and meet some of his favorite artists. 

How many people in life can get a second chance? Isn't it nice to be able to look at stories like this and think of how much power it has? It can make people realize that no matter what happens to you in life, if you're a good person with a good heart, then there has to be something out there for you made to save you. That's what Steve Lopez was for Nathaniel, a savior. There has never been a musician like Nathaniel, a story such as this, and it has touched so many hearts. Nathaniel truly is the soloist. Now there are new beginnings for Nathaniel, a much deserved second chance for him to be able to catch up some on things he has missed out on. I believe that no matter what types of conflicts come upon them both, that their friendship will prevail all evils.
