This is a funny, poignant story of several people whose main connection is their use of a small public park in New York. Swift is excellent at making his characters funny and sympathetic, quirky and lovable, all at the same time. ( ) ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu
The misadventures of a motley group of artists making their way in New York City A misfit collection of wannabes, has-beens, and never-weres, the Christopher Park Regulars gather frequently in the heart of New York's Greenwich Village. Here they share their hopes, dreams, and memories (and in the case of the abnormally obsessed C.C. Wake, an irrational fear of earthquakes), as they wait to become famous. Andrew T. Andrews left a fancy home, job, and wife behind to struggle downtown as a starving writer and has now almost finished his third book on his best subject: himself. Maria la Hija de Jesús has also come a long way from where she started--when she was a he--to become a bona fide off-off Broadway star . . . when she isn't spending time in a senior citizen home taking the residents on fantasy excursions to Europe. And then there's the rice cereal heir, the High Fiber Man, watching helplessly in horror as his mother fritters away his inheritance. Author Edward Swift's love of endearing eccentrics, rebels, and oddballs has been well documented in such acclaimed novels asnbsp;Splendora,nbsp;Principia Martindale, andnbsp;A Place with Promise. Now he brings the sideshow from the dust of East Texas to the hustle and bustle of New York City, chronicling the struggles of his irrepressible Regulars in a story that is funny, sad, and totally outrageous.
