Opis

Grace Lovejoy photographs the neglected masterpiece mosaics of the subway for her Master's Degree in Fine Arts at Columbia. Arthur writes on the meaning of a life in disquiet as an underground commuter in New York. To breathe life into glorious mosaics and new meaning into Arthur, Grace invites him to join her creative venture. In the mosaics underground Grace and Art embark on a voyage with transformational possibilities to enable them to piece together the rich pixels of the Mosaic of Life. Among fellow passengers in transit Grace and Art share a common humanity as their creative journey together begs the questions: Why do we live as we do? Where does real joy reside? How shall we endow being with meaning? In the inspiring humanity of the mosaics underground they find the City is the Grand Artisan piecing together its own mosaic masterpiece with the shards of human experience. The powers of perception and literary style of Lentz are reminiscent of Mitchell's "Cloud Atlas," Dostoyevsky's "Notes from Underground" and Pessoa's "Book of Disquiet."
