7 ao�t 1974, un funambule s'�lance entre les Twin Towers, se jouant du vide. De cette apparition fugace, Colum McCann d�roule le panorama d'un New York en pleine �bullition : grandes dames de Park Avenue, prostitu�es �puis�es, cur�s �gar�s, junkies en cavale, m�res pleurant la " sale guerre ". Une ronde de personnages dont les voix s'entrem�lent comme autant de fils tendus sur la course du monde.

" [...] comme toujours avec McCann, l'essentiel est l�. Cette aisance � montrer l'humain dans son combat quotidien avec la r�alit�. Cette empathie pour les plus fragiles, les moins glorieux ! "
Bruno Corty, Le Figaro litt�raire
