Descriere magazin:
A luminous new novel from the best-selling author of City on Fire , plunging us deep into the lives of a teenage girl and her father as they navigate love, grief, addiction, resurrection, and the restless pull of other people. When 13-year-old Jolie Aspern drops her phone onto the subway tracks in 2011, her estranged dad, Ethan, seems like the furthest thing from her mind. A convicted felon and recovering addict, Ethan has always struggled to see past himself. But then a call from his ex makes him fear their daughter\'s in deeper trouble than anyone realizes. Believing he\'s the only one who can save her, he decides to return to New York with a gift: the whole of his life, its hard-won triumphs and harrowing mistakes . . . So begins the intimate epic of Jolie and Ethan: child and adult, apart and together, different yet the same. Their journey toward each other will face opposition from grandparents and siblings and friends. It will strain connections with roommates and benefactors and a probation officer desperate to help. It will push Jolie out past her depth with a mysterious admirer, and Ethan in over his head with his first love, Jolie\'s mom. But as father and daughter struggle to find their footing, new vistas beckon: from a surf break in mid-\'90s Delaware to group therapy during the great recession, from an encampment at Occupy Wall Street to a HoJo on Maryland\'s Eastern Shore, from the heights of the Brooklyn Bridge to horizons seldom seen in fiction. The
Second Coming is at once an incandescent feat of storytelling and an exploration of an enduring mystery: Can we ever really outrun the past, stay true to ourselves while still chasing something new? Full of music and pathos and passion--full of blues--this beautifully attuned work of fiction renews the extraordinary promise of this writer\'s boundless and unflagging talents (Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times ).
