Publisher's description. Three lives collide in 1980s downtown New
York: Argentinian painter Raul, infamous art critic James, and
daisy-fresh young wanderer Lucy, a muse looking for her artist.
This is a love letter to New York and the people who embodied the
city's vital, messy, living spirit.
*Penguin*

Parker never could...Inventive, authentic, fresh. I held my breath
the whole way
*New York Times Book Review*
Delightful...Prentiss has imagination and humor
*Guardian*
A love letter to a vanished New York

Frenzied energy, addictive from the start
