Wyjątkowe Czasy

by: Michael Cunningham (author) Maja Charkiewicz (author) Anna Dorota Kamińska (author)

Wiersze Whitmana wpłynęły na bohaterów każdej z trzech historii Cunninghama. Wszystkie toczą się w tym samym miejscu, na Manhattanie, ale w różnych epokach. Tłem dla pierwszej, W maszynie, jest okres rozkwitu rewolucji przemysłowej. Druga, Dziecięca krucjata, mówi o życiu nowojorczyków nękanych na początku XXI w. atakami terrorystycznymi. W trzeciej, Nietypowej piękności, Nowy Jork wpada zostaje opanowany przez uchodźców z planety, z którą Ziemianie nawiązali kontakt
