This is a book about the beauty and complexity of the human soul, about God, love, and justice, yet you can lose yourself in it as though it were a dream. You'll be transported to NY of the Belle Epoque, to a city clarified by the siege of unprecedented winters. One night, Peter Lake--orphan, master-mechanic, and master second-story man--attempts to rob a fortress-like mansion on the Upper West Side. Though he thinks the home is empty, the daughter of the home is home. Thus starts the affair between the middle-aged Irish burglar and Beverly Penn, a young girl who's dying. Because of a love that initially he cannot fully understand, Peter, a simple and uneducated man, will be driven ''to stop time and recreate the dead.'' His great struggle, in a city ever alight using its own energy and beset by winter, is a beautiful and extraordinary story.
