New York My Love

A memoir about falling in love with New York City and learning how to love. Enveloped in the restaurants streets and museums of 2008 New York a lusty bodhisattva sings his love song to the paradise that he soon must abandon to help his autistic son. A search for the now and for a lost kiss the crisis of aging a paean to the ineffable and a spiritual transformation with stylistic hints of Daumal's Night of Serious Drinking Calvino's Invisible Cities Jerome's Three Men in a Boat Jung classical music and bewitching but faltering coming-of-age memories. All mingled with what's most beautiful about living in New York.
