THE ANGEL OF TIMES SQUARE
A novel about silence, redemption, and the violence of testimony
Daniel McNeal is a broken man. A journalist who once broke someone else-a woman named Anna, whose life he destroyed in pursuit of a story. Now, assigned to find the mysterious homeless man who saved a child in the chaos of Times Square, Mac sees a chance at redemption. An ordinary assignment. A simple story.
But Arthur Madigan is no ordinary subject.
As Mac traces the poet through the margins of America-from the bohemian streets of Greenwich Village to the silent desert of New Mexico, from a blind watchmaker in Pittsburgh to the invisible community beneath a bridge in St. Louis-he discovers something far more complex than heroism. He discovers a man who has spent forty years living a truth that journalism was never built to tell.
Because Arthur knows what Mac is only beginning to understand: that every story told is a story taken. That bearing witness and inflicting damage are sometimes the same act. That true honor might demand not to speak at all.
The Angel of Times Square is a novel about the cost of testimony, the possibility of transformation, and the question that haunts every seeker of truth: how do you tell a story without destroying it?
Some ghosts are meant to stay invisible.
A meditation on the ethics of storytelling wrapped in a haunting portrait of redemption.Also in
