Beskrivning
Season's Greetings captures the mood of New York City and its people, their humor, fantasies, grudges, and hopes. Full of the atmosphere of the 1940s, it's like taking a trip back in time, walking through snowy streets, traveling by bus and subway, squeezing through crowded department store aisles or sipping a coffee at the counter of an all-night diner. A veteran reporter, Herbert Clyde Lewis creates an unforgettable portrait of Manhattan at both its seediest and most inspiring.

Recensioner i media

Skillfully and impressively, Mr. Lewis weaves his characters' lives in and out of each other as he writes about a city he both loves and hates -- New York. Season's Greetings is as good a novel about men and women in a great city as we have read.
