About this listen

Seven stories about those moments of absolute clarity when we realize anything can be set aloft, even ourselves. Strange and utterly familiar at the same time.

Pauline falls through the floor and no one notices. A chance encounter with a “goddamn mermaid” defines a boy’s life. Scarves flying in a storm turn a wealthy child into a high priestess whether she likes it or not. A mysterious rain messes with Virgil’s memories…Set in New York and Long Island, these brilliantly crafted stories spy on the most private of human pivots and culminations, on those moments of absolute clarity when we’re on the brink of letting go. Sometimes we do, and the wind takes us. Sometimes we hold tight. Or we take a deep breath and raise our flags.

Air consists of seven stories: "Alma", "Jessica", "Summer Storm", "Estoril", "Non-things", "Clara of Naxos" and "Pauline".
