Tom Connolly's dazzling new novel is a funny, turbulent and heartfelt study of male relationships. It is April in Manhattan and the destinies of four very different men are about to collide. Nineteen-year-old Finn has just arrived in New York City with his irrepressible girlfriend, determined to even the score with his older brother Jack for abandoning him in the aftermath of their parents’ deaths. Across town, successful gallery owner Leo is haunted by loneliness, unsettled by the contrast between his life and that of his brother-in-law and oldest friend William, who is enviably content in his faith and his marriage. When Finn wanders into Leo’s gallery, a series of unexpected and interconnected events unfold, changing the lives of all four men forever. Beautifully orchestrated and richly comic, Men Like Air is an uplifting story of growth and renewal, mapping the complex workings of the human heart across the streets of New York City.
