Written as liner notes to fictional music, Christopher Miller's uproarious debut novel skewers conventions in a work of high entertainment and imagination. In Sudden Noises from Inanimate Objects, the complete works of the prodigiously cranky composer Simon Silber get their diablolical due from Silber's official biographer -- a man who grows to hate his subject. Not content with simply discussing Silber's odd musical oeuvre -- whose highlights include an hourlong performance of the Minute Waltz, an etude composed on a telephone keypad, and a transcription of crow caws -- the commentator veers into a delightfully venomous expose of a musician whose grandiose ambitions far exceed his actual talent.
