Description
Nathan Zuckerman, a bestselling author in his mid-thirties, navigates the streets of Manhattan as the turbulent sixties draw to a close. His fame has led to an unsettling level of scrutiny, with fans and strangers alike assuming he is the fictional satyr Gilbert Carnovsky from one of his books. Recent events, including the murders of Robert Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr., have left Zuckerman questioning whether he is indeed a target. As he retreats from his friends and breaks free from his marriage, Zuckerman's relationships with those closest to him begin to fray. This second volume in the trilogy explores the consequences of Zuckerman's newfound success and the damage it causes to his personal life.
