Inhaltsangabe
Nick Hornby meets Patti Smith, Mean Streets meets A Visit From the Goon Squad in this quintessential New York City story about two people who knew each other in the downtown music scene in the 1980s, meet again in the present day, and fall in love.
Mike knew June in New York’s downtown music scene in the eighties. Back then, he thought she was “the living night—all the glamour and potential of a New York night when you’re 25.” Now he’s twice divorced and happy to be alone—so happy he’s writing a book about it. Then he meets June again. “And here she was with a raincoat over the back of the chair talking about getting a divorce and saying she’s done with relationships. Her ice-calm eyes are the same, the same her glory of curls.”
Jacket Weather is about awakening to love—dizzying, all-consuming, worldview-shaking love—when it’s least expected. It's also about remaining alert to today's pleasures—exploring the city, observing the seasons, listening to the guys at the gym—while time is slipping away. Told in fragments of narrative, reveries, recipes, bits of conversation and snatches of weather, the book collapses a decade in Mike and June’s life and shifts a reader to a glowing nostalgia for the present.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Jacket Weather is told in fragments of narrative, snatches of conversation, and bits of reflection and weather, and set in present-day New York, about June and Mike, who knew each other in the downtown music scene in the '80s and who meet again after twenty years and fall in love. But they're in their fifties when they do, so the book is also about mortality, because all of a sudden it seems like there's barely enough time for them. Besides June and Mike, the book is populated by the old guys Mike talks to at the Y and June's best friend Jane, a sort of fairy godmother who's also a tough old broad from the music business. Jacket Weather collapses ten years of these people telling anecdotes and exchanging recipes and roaming around New York to create an island in time's flow'. Artikel-Nr. 9781593766931
