Descriere magazin:
Two Bronx boys take radically different paths in this novel about the limits of genius and the loss of home, by a terrifically gifted author (Anita Shreve, New York Times -bestselling author). Ralph Silverman was a foreign film buff, a victim of bullies, and a boy genius. He held long conversations with his pet parakeet and spent countless hours on a computer, creating mesmerizing music and solving problems in philosophy. He was a friend of great scholars and the son of a wealthy outer-borough businessman with shady associates and a secret second family. And, as he begins to take over the story from the narrator, Ralph finds himself in South Florida, physically abused and expelled into a frightening world of the unhoused--with a broken pair of glasses, no money, and no shoes. From the celebrated author of Searching for Bobby Fischer ,
Anything Is
Good is a hypnotically compelling tale of a man haunted by the fate of his childhood buddy, and of that friend\'s pleasures and misfortunes as he navigates an unhoused life--a life more complex and dramatic than a bypasser might ever imagine.
Anything Is
Good . . . offers a deeply affecting dive into the lives of the unhoused. Its shifting perspective and changing narrative voice builds to a clarion call for greater empathy and understanding. --Geraldine Brooks, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of March
