Sinossi
*SHORTLISTED FOR THE ENCORE AWARD 2020*
On a bitterly cold winter’s afternoon, Michael and Caitlin escape their unhappy marriages to keep an illicit rendez-vous. Once a month, for the past quarter of a century, Coney Island has been their haven.
These precious, hidden hours are their only nourishment. But now, amid the howling of an angry snowstorm, the shut-down, out-of-season resort feels like the edge of the world. And their lives, suddenly, are on the brink – with news of serious illness on one side, and a move to the Midwest on the other. And so, after half a lifetime spent in secret, certain long-avoided facts need to be faced, consequences examined, decisions made, and – perhaps – chances finally taken.
A quiet, intense drama of late-flowering intimacy, My Coney Island Baby condenses, within the course of a single day, the histories, landscapes, tragedies and moments of wonder that constitute the lives of two people who, although born worlds apart, have been drawn together.
O’Callaghan, a masterful prose stylist, has created a devastatingly powerful novel about two unforgettable characters and the choices they have made. This is a book full of sorrow, but also radiant with beauty, longing and breathless desire.

My Coney Island Baby
Da: Hamelyn, Madrid, M, Spagna
Valutazione del venditore 4 su 5 stelle
Condizione: Muy bueno. : En una tarde gélida de invierno, Michael y Caitlin escapan de sus matrimonios infelices para mantener una cita ilícita. Una vez al mes, durante el último cuarto de siglo, Coney Island ha sido su refugio. Estas preciosas horas ocultas son su único alimento. Pero ahora, en medio del aullido de una furiosa tormenta de nieve, el centro turístico cerrado y fuera de temporada se siente como el fin del mundo. Y sus vidas, de repente, están al borde del abismo, con noticias de una enfermedad grave por un lado y una mudanza al Medio Oeste por el otro. Así, después de media vida en secreto, es necesario afrontar ciertos hechos largamente evitados, examinar las consecuencias, tomar decisiones y, tal vez, aprovechar por fin las oportunidades. Un drama tranquilo e intenso de intimidad tardía, My Coney Island Baby condensa, en el transcurso de un solo día, las historias, los paisajes, las tragedias y los momentos de asombro que constituyen las vidas de dos personas que, aunque nacidas en mundos distintos, se han visto unidas. O'Callaghan, un maestro del estilo en prosa, ha creado una novela devastadoramente poderosa sobre dos personajes inolvidables y las decisiones que han tomado. Este es un libro lleno de tristeza, pero también radiante de belleza, anhelo y deseo sin aliento.
