NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A mystery that reverberates through families, friendships, and the corridors of power in New York and "captures the city’s dangerous, magnetic allure" (The New York Times). • Streaming now on Apple TV+ “As close to a great American novel as this century has produced.” —Stephen King New York City, 1976. Meet Regan and William Hamilton-Sweeney, estranged heirs to one of the city’s great fortunes; Keith and Mercer, the men who, for better or worse, love them; Charlie and Samantha, two suburban teenagers seduced by downtown’s punk scene; an obsessive magazine reporter and his idealistic neighbor—and the detective trying to figure out what any of them have to do with a shooting in Central Park on New Year’s Eve. When the blackout of July 13, 1977, plunges this world into darkness, each of these lives will be changed forever. City on Fire is an unforgettable novel about love and betrayal and forgiveness, about art and truth and rock ’n’ roll: about what people need from each other in order to live—and about what makes the living worth doing in the first place.

A Field Guide to the North American Family

An Illustrated Novella

By: Garth Risk Hallberg

The very first work of fiction by the best-selling, acclaimed author of City on Fire--his piercingly beautiful treasure box of a novella about two families in the suburbs, now in a newly designed full-color edition For years, the Hungates and the Harrisons have coexisted peacefully in the same Long Island neighborhood, enjoying the pleasures and weathering the pitfalls of their suburban habitat. But when the patriarch of one family dies unexpectedly, the survivors face a stark imperative: adapt or face extinction. In sixty-three interlinked vignettes and striking accompanying photographs, the novella cuts multiple paths--which can be reconstructed in any order--through the lives of its richly imagined characters. Part art object, part Choose Your Own Adventure, A Field Guide to the North American Family is an innovative and deeply personal look at the ties that bind, as well as a poignant meditation on connection in a fragmented world.

City on fire, édition française

By: Garth Risk Hallberg

Un roman ambitieux, magistral, d'une incroyable intensité. Un véritable tour de force. 31 décembre 1976. New York se prépare pour le réveillon. Chez les Hamilton-Sweeney, Felicia accueille financiers et mondains tandis qu'à l'autre bout de la ville, dans le Lower East Side, Charlie attend Samantha pour assister à un concert punk. À quelques encablures de là, dans Hell's Kitchen, Mercer Goodman tourne et retourne un délicat carton d'invitation. Et s'il se rendait à la réception des Hamilton-Sweeney pour retrouver Regan, cette sœur que William, son amant, lui a toujours cachée ? Pourquoi ne pas saisir l'occasion d'en apprendre plus sur lui, l'ancien leader du groupe punk Ex Post Facto ? Bientôt, des coups de feu retentissent dans Central Park. Une ombre s'écroule dans la neige. Qu'est-ce qui peut bien relier ces personnages à ce drame ? Alors que rien ne les prédestinait à se rencontrer, leurs histoires ne vont cesser de se croiser et de s'entremêler jusqu'au blackout du 13 juillet 1977. Une immense coupure de courant plonge alors New York dans le noir. Leurs vies en seront bouleversées à jamais... City on Fire est une ode à New York, un roman flamboyant et inoubliable sur l'amour, la trahison et le pardon, sur l'art, la vérité et le rock, et sur cette interrogation : qu'est-ce qui rend la vie digne d'être vécue ? Une presse dithyrambique ! " Un roman brillant qui enveloppe une ville entière d'amants et d'ambitieux, de saints et d'assassins. " The Washington Post " Une épopée épique sur la condition humaine à la fois ambitieuse et sublime. " Vanity Fair " Un roman à l'ambition étonnante et à la force stupéfiante. " The New York Times " Un roman électrisant qui fait revivre le Manhattan brut des années 70. Comme une version punk de "La Maison d'âpre-vents" de Dickens. " Vogue " Un grand roman éblouissant. " The New York Times " Garth Risk Hallberg signe un premier roman à l'ambition vertigineuse. " The Economist
