Publisher's summary

Twenty-two short stories that will lift your spirits or break your heart from acclaimed author Warren Adler, well known for iconic novel turned international box-office hit The War of the Roses.

Written to celebrate the author’s return to New York City after 40 years away from it, Adler focuses his laser eye on New York City in these 22 deftly crafted and compelling short stories. New York, the frenetic, tough-minded, generous-hearted city, magnet for people’s hopes and aspirations, is as vividly and lovingly portrayed here as any of the characters. As in his celebrated novels, Adler’s themes in New York Echoes deal primarily with intimate human relationships - the mysterious nature of love and attraction, the fragile bonds between husbands and wives and parents and children, the divide between generations, the obsessive pursuit of the creative artist and the emotional toll it exacts.

In these stories, past memories collide with present realities; with first love comes first betrayal; chance encounters have unexpected consequences; and the devastating impact of 9/11 refuses to fade, wreaking havoc years after the tragedy. All of the hallmarks of Warren Adler’s fiction are everywhere in evidence in New York Echoes, in powerful stories that reflect a special understanding of the human condition as seen through the eyes of one of America’s most prolific authors.

Above all, these radiant tales are a celebration of the short story and of an author’s return to his much-loved, dearly missed native city.

Like being home..

I just loved this novel with all the tales of different people either living in or visiting New York City. As someone who was born, raised and lived there more than half of my life I can relate to just about everything written here. The author did a fantastic job with not only the characters but describing how 'we' the people of NY are and the places we have roamed. I so enjoyed the narrator's way of expressing each character and scene. Great team :)

Like a bunch of snapshots of NY...

This is without doubt one of the most fun and entertaining audiobooks I have ever had. It is like a bunch of photos taken in different places in different situations and of different people - but all the stories are set in NY.

My personal favorite is ,The mean Mrs. Dikstein' - I am sure everybody knows the situation and it's exactly my kind of humor.

Whether you have ever been to NY or not, this book is a real treat. All the shortstorys are wonderfully narrated by Daniela Acitelli. I feel she really makes the different characters come alive.

This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.
