Abstract
New York, August 1974: a man is walking in the sky. Between the newly built Twin Towers, the man twirls though the air. Far below, the lives of complete strangers spin toards each other: Corrigan, a radical Irish monk working in the Bronx; Claire a delicate Upper East Side housewife reeling rom the death of her son; Lara, a drug-addled young artist; Gloria, solid and poud despite decades of hardship; Tillie, a hooker whou used to dream of a better life; and Jazzlyn, her beautiful daughter raised on promisses 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.
