Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Julian Donahue is captivated by his iPod, with each song evoking memories tied to significant moments in his life—his romantic past, the day he met his future wife, and the birth of his son. However, when his family disintegrates, music loses its magic, leaving him adrift. Everything changes one snowy night in Brooklyn when he discovers Cait O'Dwyer, an Irish rock singer, performing in a bar. An unexpected love affair begins, igniting a passion for both music and each other, despite their lack of direct interaction. Their connection unfolds through cryptic emails, text messages, cell-phone videos, and lyrics on Cait's website, creating a unique bond that transcends traditional relationships. As Cait's career takes off, Julian supports her from afar, becoming a voice of understanding in her life. Yet, as their feelings deepen, maintaining distance becomes increasingly challenging. This story evolves into a poignant exploration of love, obsession, and loss, framed within a darkly comedic narrative. Celebrated as one of America's best writers, the author presents a keenly observed tale of modern love, navigating the thin line between the desire for intimacy and the pull of oblivion.
