Prepare to relinquish yourself to a ravishing new world in this exquisitely hypnotic read. Helprin offers you the chance to view New York from a different reality, one of disconcertingly bewitching rogues, heroically valiant horses and divinely mysterious villages. Four interlinked tales are told across several generations, where time undulates and miracles materialise out of thin air.
Appearing at first to be a lovely whimsical fantasy, as you read further, you feel there is a deeper and more profound story emerging from the pages. This fascinating tale is not about the ending but the wild and incredible journey of the characters who have been poetically brought to life. This is a book to fall in love with, to embrace, to yearn for, then to return to and savour all over again. ~ Liz Robinson
