** spoiler alert ** The main character of this book is a guy named Hans van den Broek. He is a banker from London, but travels to New York City for a job offer and stays in the Chelsea Hotel. He was not into the whole New York City lifestyle, and fell even more uninterested when he was left alone after his wife and son returned to London. They left because they felt unsafe as foreigners in the City shortly after 9/11. They were staying in the hotel because they were unable to live in there studio in Tribeca until they were told they could return. The loneliness continued until he met a man named Chuck Ramkissoon, a Trinidadian, who had a unique way of looking at life. Hans reconnects with his passion for the sport Cricket, a game he played when he was a child. Cricket becomes important to his life in the City. Hans begins to connect with the life he was living in New York and began to embrace it. As his journey continued and he was introduced to "another New York" he comes in contact with a diverse area filled with different nationalities and race, people more in touch with the person he was, rather than the everyday New Yorker. I found this to be interesting because it really made the story progress, since for once in Hans time in New York City, he didn't feel alone because he was introduced to people who shared a common thread of interests and lifestyles. Ramkissoon had a very positive effect on his life because he opened up new doors for Hans to meet people he never would have met if it wasn't for Ramkissoon. To me, I see it as a home away from home. Also as a way to reconnect with his childhood love for the sport Cricket in a new setting. Unfortunately in the beginning, they break the news that Chuck's body was found in a river. This triggers the memories of Hans time with Ramkissoon. Overall, I thought this book was pretty good and it kept me interested. I would recommend it to others, but it isn't a must read.
