A pink clapboard boarding house in Flatbush, the summer of 1947, and through the ceiling of a young Southerner's room comes a phonograph turned up loud, then laughter, then screaming. Upstairs live Nathan Landau, brilliant, magnetic, coming apart, and Sophie Zawistowska, a Polish Catholic with a number on her forearm who lies about nearly everything.
Her thought process dwindled, ceased. Then she felt her legs crumple. "I can't choose! I can't choose!"
The blurb, the gist, the why of the day and the work itself are in the app. The first button needs it on this device; the second gets it there.
