Meet James Bennett, a synesthetic art critic for the New York Times and Raul Engales, an exiled Argentinian painter running from his past. As the two men ascend in the downtown arts scene, dual tragedies strike, and each is faced with a loss that acutely affects his relationship to life and to art. An inventive and sweeping debut novel that boldly renders a complex moment when the meaning and nature of art is being all but upended, and New York City as a whole is reinventing itself. Molly Prentiss deftly explores the need for beauty, community, creation, and love in an ever-changing urban landscape.
