Title : And let the wide world go on its mad race - Colum McCann - book
Summary :
August 7, 1974, a tightrope walker soars between the Twin Towers, playing with the void. From this fleeting apparition, Colum McCann unfolds a panorama of a New York in full turmoil: the great ladies of Park Avenue, exhausted prostitutes, lost priests, junkies on the run, mothers mourning the "dirty war." A circle of characters whose voices intertwine like so many threads stretched across the course of the world.
"[...] as always with McCann, the essential is there. This ease in showing humanity in its daily struggle with reality. This empathy for the most fragile, the least glorious!"
Bruno Corty, Le Figaro littéraire
