(Bloomsbury, 2001) "Joel Rose's suspenseful saga relives the greatest hoax ever recorded in New York City history." --Vanity Fair "On a summer day in the eighteen-twenties, two men brought startling news to New York City's Centre Market. Manhattan, they announced, was sinking. The men explained that the mayor had sanctioned an emergency plan to saw off the bottom half of the island, drag it out into the harbor, turn it head to toe, and reattach it. Joel Rose's semi-fictional re-creation of the hoax reflects on the peculiar complicity that exists between the duper and the duped." --The New Yorker "Sure to get people talking big-time!" --Gotham Magazine Between C&D: New Writing from the Lower East Side Fiction Magazine
