This sprawling narrative follows the surreal journeys of brothers Mikael and Grigori Borowitz as they migrate from Russia to a fantastical version of early 20th-century New York. The text portrays Brooklyn and Coney Island as shifting, metaphysical landscapes where the boundaries between objective reality and the subconscious are permanently blurred. Historical figures like Thomas Edison and J.P. Morgan appear not just as titans of industry, but as men grappling with occult forces, sentient machines, and the commodification of human dreams. Throughout the various vignettes, a sense of spiritual malaise and impending apocalypse looms, often reflected in the brothers' interactions with bizarre entities like the dybbuk Boris Gamarnik. The sources explore the conflict between the mechanized progress of the modern world and the fragile, uncontainable nature of the human spirit.
