An autobiographical novel, Maurice Guest is set in the musical culture of 1890s Leipzig, where Richardson was a student from 1889 to 1892. The international cast of music students perform, debate, love, drink and play in the musical shadows of J. S. Bach, Beethoven, Wagner, Richard Strauss and Bizet.
