Ito and Mariane find themselves careening on a downward spiral through the dark streets of Manhattan. As they navigate a sea of alcohol, sex and exotic food, the reader is taken into the minds of the scarred people they encounter, immigrants from across the entire world, whose paths, like the city itself, criss-cross and overlap.
