Author: Garth Risk Hallberg Publisher: Jonathan Cape (2015) ISBN-10: 0224101714 ISBN-13: 9780224101714 Condition: Very Good. Some wear to cover edges and corners with a bit of scuffing along the bottom edge. There is a crease across the top corner of the back cover and a few of the pages. Else a very good copy. Binding: Softcover Pages: 903 Dimensions: 23.2 x 15.2 x 4.8 cm +++ by Garth Risk Hallberg +++ The individuals who live within this extraordinary first novel are: Regan and William Hamilton-Sweeney, estranged heirs to one of the city's largest fortunes; Keith and Mercer, the men who, for better or worse, love them; Charlie and Samantha, two suburban teenagers seduced by downtown's punk scene; an obsessive magazine reporter and his idealistic neighbor; and the detective trying to figure out what any of them have to do with a shooting in Central Park.
Their entangled relationships open up the loneliest-seeming corners of the crowded city. And when the infamous blackout of July 13, 1977, plunges this world into darkness, each of these lives will be changed forever. A novel about love and betrayal and forgiveness, about art and truth and rock 'n' roll about how the people closest to us are sometimes the hardest to reach about what it means to be human.
