Little disasters
(Book)
It was the exhilaration of new parenthood that first united Michael and Paul. Paul turns to Michael for a favour, unwittingly kindling the spark of connection between two couples into the affair that will blow them apart. Told in the alternating voices of these charismatic but deeply flawed men, Randall Klein's debut is an engrossing story of the bonds of love and family - and our unending urges to test them, even when we need them most.
Outside the Brooklyn hospital where their wives, Rebecca and Jenny, had exiled them from the delivery room, Paul turns to Michael for a favor. A year later, a crisis in midtown Manhattan leaves both men stranded-- Michael at the northernmost tip of the island and Paul in a dark subway tunnel under the East River. Each must make the arduous trek home through record-breaking heat, nervously eyeing the thin plume of smoke above the skyline-- while their private turmoils looms, bringing their intertwined lives to the brink.
