Falling Man - A Novel - Thryft

Life-altering tragedy of 9/11, seen through one man's eyes.

Falling Man could be a good read for readers who are interested in the psychological impact of 9/11 on individuals. The book presents an incredibly powerful narrative and explores the human condition at a time of extreme crisis. Critics have applauded the way in which the author handles the delicate subject matter, with a profound sense of empathy and sensitivity.

Description

There is September 11 and then there are the days after, and finally the years.Falling 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.
