London: Bloomsbury, (2009) dj. SIGNED hardcover first edition - A novel of one day in New York City which opens with a mysterious tightrope walker running, dancing, leaping between the towers, suspended a quarter mile above the ground (based on Philippe Petit's actual walk in August 1974, in which he crossed between the towers 8 times). In the streets below, many ordinary lives become extraordinary in McCann's intricate portrait of a city and its people. "This is a gorgeous book, multilayered and deeply felt, and it's a damned lot of fun to read, too. Leave it to an Irishman to write one of the greatest-ever novels about New York. There's so much passion and humor and pure lifeforce on every page that you'll find yourself giddy, dizzy, overwhelmed." (Dave Eggers) SIGNED on the title page. Winner of the National Book Award and the Dublin IMPAC Literary Award.
