'An astonishing balancing act by a great writer prepared to take risks. A book to treasure' Daily Mail
________________________
New York, August 1974: a man is walking in the sky.

Between the newly built Twin Towers, the man twirls through the air. Far below, the lives of complete strangers spin towards each other: Corrigan, a radical Irish monk working in the Bronx; Claire, a delicate Upper East Side housewife reeling from the death of her son; Lara, a drug-addled young artist; Gloria, solid and proud despite decades of hardship; Tillie, a hooker who used to dream of a better life; and Jazzlyn, her beautiful daughter raised on promises that reach beyond the skyline of New York.

In the shadow of one reckless and beautiful act, these disparate lives will collide, and be transformed for ever.©2009 Colum McCann (P)2009 Recorded Books LLC

Kritikerstimmen

'An astonishing balancing act by a great writer prepared to take risks. A book to treasure'
'A blockbuster, groundbreaking, heartbreaking, symphony of a novel ... No novelist writing of New York has climbed higher, dived deeper'
‘McCann has reinvented the city of New York in all its breathing, fighting, whining, joyous clamour'
‘A wow of a novel - rich, humane, brilliantly written and as deep as it is wide'
