2) Do you think the book Maestro deals with the themes of loss and regret? Justify your position

Keller's guilt over the loss of his wife and son and being unable to save them is a driving factor in his life. Because of his guilt and regret, Keller erases his former identity and goes into self-imposed exile in Darwin. He renounces the emotional music he loved the most and amputates his little finger to prevent himself from playing the instrument that he was playing while his wife and son were captured. Although the Crabbes and the Wallaces try to feed him German and Austrian food and talk to him about his homeland, his anger and regret over what happened there makes him say that nothing could ever make him homesick. Paul also experiences his own form of regret for not spending more time with Keller. In hindsight, he wishes he had not given into the temptation to spend time with his girlfriend instead of with Keller. He wishes he had written to and visited Keller more and spent more time learning from his maestro before it was too late.
