Bennie Salazar, a former punk rocker turned record executive, and his assistant Sasha, a volatile and kleptomaniac young woman, are the protagonists of this fascinating novel. Through an innovative narrative structure and a wide array of styles ranging from tragedy to satire, Jennifer Egan explores the interplay between time, music, and the human capacity for survival and redemption. The work weaves together the lives of a diverse group of characters whose paths cross over many years in places as varied as New York, San Francisco, Naples, and Africa. It is a sharp and moving novel about decline, endurance, and the universal search for meaning in a constantly changing world.
