This is an audiobook about the beauty and complexity of the human soul, about God, love, and justice -- and yet you can lose yourself in it as if it were a dream. You will be transported to New York of the Belle Epoque, to a city clarified by a siege of unprecedented winters. One night, Peter Lake-- orphan, master-mechanic, and master second-story man-- attempts to rob a fortress-like mansion on the Upper West Side. Though he thinks the house is empty, the daughter of the house is home. Thus begins the affair between the middle-aged Irish burglar and Beverly Penn, a young girl who is dying. Because of a love that at first he cannot fully understand, Peter, a simple and uneducated man, will be driven “to stop time and bring back the dead. †His great struggle, in a city ever alight with its own energy and beset by winter, is a truly beautiful and extraordinary story. Author Mark Helprin's books include A Dove of the East and Other Stories, Refiner's Fire, Ellis Island and Other Stories, Memoir from Antproof Case, The Pacific and Other Stories, and Freddy and Frederica. Oliver Wyman, a native New Yorker, is known for his extensive work as a reader of audiobooks in addition to his remarkable versatility as a voice actor in every medium. One of the founders of New York City's Collective Unconscious theater, Oliver has appeared on stage, film, and television. His work as a narrator has won many awards, including an Audie award for his reading of Lance Armstrong's autobiography, It's Not About the Bike.
