Man is a magnificent, essential novel about the event that defines
turn-of-the-century America. It begins in the smoke and ash of the
burning towers and tracks the aftermath of this global tremor in
the intimate lives of a few people. First there is Keith, walking
out of the rubble into a life that he'd always imagined belonged to
everyone but him. Then Lianne, his estranged wife, memory-haunted,
trying to reconcile two versions of the same shadowy man. And their
small son Justin, standing at the window, scanning the sky for more
planes. These are lives choreographed by loss, grief, and the
enormous force of history. Brave and brilliant, Falling Man traces
the way the events of September 11 have reconfigured our emotional
landscape, our memory and our perception of the world. It is
cathartic, beautiful, heartbreaking.
