Gal Ackerman, a writer a generation older than his journalist friend, dies and leaves an unfinished book spread over countless notebooks in a Brooklyn motel. Honouring an unspoken agreement, the younger man tries to put it together. Gal had written it for just one person, Nadia Orlov, who disappeared long ago. Assembled from many voices and fragments, the book ranges from Coney Island to Tuscany and Chinatown, telling of friendship, solitude and romance.
