Description
Billy O'Callaghan's My Coney Island Baby is a quiet, intense drama that condenses the histories and landscapes of two people into a single day. After half a lifetime spent in secret, their lives are suddenly on the brink, with news of serious illness and a move to the Midwest threatening to upend everything. As they face long-avoided facts and consequences, they must make decisions about their future and perhaps take chances for the first time. A devastatingly powerful novel, My Coney Island Baby is full of sorrow, yet radiant with beauty, longing, and breathless desire. With masterful prose, O'Callaghan explores the complexities of two unforgettable characters and the choices they've made. This book is a poignant exploration of love, intimacy, and the human condition, set against the backdrop of a deserted resort on a bitterly cold winter's afternoon.
