Central Park, NYC has been witness for a half century of love for Abe and Jane. Alas, Jane is dying and Abe is recounting their life together.
Cover blurb: Told in various parts of view, even in conversation with Central Park, these voices weave in and out to paint a portrait as complicated and essential as love itself.
An homage to NYC, to romance, and even to loss, This is a Love Story by Jessica Soffer tenderly captures deep truths about life and marriage in radiant prose.
I really enjoyed the chapters featuring just life in Central Park. Very short paragraphs covered the movements of folks in and out of various sections, the picnics, the kisses, the children floating boats, the vendors, the seasons. Truly lyrical especially if you've ever visited and enjoyed a day there.
p. 1 The Park is a beating heart, an adagio, a dreamy parenthesis
