The story of two boys from Brooklyn, a white boy called Dylan Ebdus and a black boy, Mingus Rude. We follow their lives from childhood, and breathe in the atmosphere of the Boerum Hill area of Brooklyn and its inhabitants. It starts in the 1970s and comes up to the present day, a massive sprawling novel full of sound and colour which all goes to make up a portrait of American life in the 20th century. It is stuffed with the graffiti, comic books, crime and violence of its era. Truly an epic novel and one which deserves to be read at its own pace. Genuinely unusual.
The stunning new novel from the author of Motherless Brooklyn, The Fortress of Solitude spans thirty years in the lives of its characters, and in the life of a neighbourhood in Brooklyn. Within these pages too are the history of soul music, of graffiti art, of experimental film and 'rock writing', and other possibly even more dubious forms of cultural activity. The novel has a cast of over a hundred characters, more than fifty speaking parts. These include two sets of sons and fathers: Mingus Rude and Barrett Rude Jr., and Dylan and Abraham Ebdus. And those four alone will break your heart.
