Publisher's Synopsis
Aura presents an eye-opening look at New York City in the 1970s, giving readers an insider's view of the lives of artists, gays and lesbians, and ethnic groups during that time. The novel chronicles the precarious journey of five close friends as they attempt to find fame in The Big Apple. Each is certain that everyone in the group will achieve recognition - whether in writing, painting or acting - and they support one another in their endeavors. As the years pass, some find their success right away while others fade into obscurity but do all their original aura's remain?
