Skyline

Autor William Fowkes
en Limba Engleză Paperback
In SKYLINE: TALES OF MANHATTAN, award-winning playwright and author William Ivor Fowkes presents 19 stories of New Yorkers (gay, straight, and confused) making startling connections and discoveries-proving once again that Manhattan's residents are just as striking as the city's celebrated skyline. "Park Avenue." A Park Avenue Republican gets a taste of life on the "down low" in Central Park. "Twin Towers." A transplanted New Orleans cabaret singer deals with life and love in the aftermath of 9/11. "Dummy Copy." A SoHo graphic designer takes drastic steps to get the attention of her editor. "Chrysler."

A 42-year-old woman takes refuge on a park bench to contemplate her latest romantic disaster. "The Dakota." Two worlds collide when a reclusive resident of New York's most fabled apartment building cruises for sex on the Internet. "The Century." A man finally tells his therapist what's really on his mind. "Headlines." A man's furtive sex life lands him on the front page of The New York Post. "Lincoln Towers." An aging resident of the Upper West Side's "city within a city" finds life increasingly mystifying. "Ashes." A man stumbles into the wrong funeral, but makes an unexpected connection with the deceased. "The Haircut." A man approaching his 60th birthday tries a new haircut, with disastrous consequences. "Chamber Music." A man's mind wanders during a private concert in honor of Mozart's 250th birthday. "Wallpaper." A struggling writer in the East Village papers his kitchen wall with rejection letters. "Metastory." A writer argues with himself as he tries to compose a short story about writing a short story.
