Publisher's Synopsis
Paris at the turn of the twenty first century. A New York City writer follows in the footsteps of his literary heroes only to discover that the reality is far from the fantasy he pursues. Falling in with a group of expatriate American students, he soon learns that things aren't much different than they are at home. When he meets Nys, a Parisian sculptor, he believes that he finally found the answer to all his problems. A tragedy is slowly unfolding but he is unable - or unwilling - to see it, and things begin to take an ominous turn when the lines between fantasy and reality become increasingly indistinguishable. The past becomes present, the present becomes past, and nothing is what it appears to be.
