Follow on Google News | Author Brooks' "Songs I Heard the City Sing" 11/3 Release Second in her Uplifting New York SeriesBy: Author Myrtle Brooks It was not before the degenerative disease he inherited from his grandfather on his father's side, called retinitis pigmentosa, had left him totally blind; not before, when the sun declined along the horizon, and the clouds of fire and magenta took on more and more gray, until the sun tucked behind the earth, and twilight became a moonless, starless night. Not before, but after. "Wonderful. That's terrific," some people responded, unsure what else to say. "Maybe he means," some whispered amongst themselves, "the city's the last thing he saw before his vision failed him altogether." "What was the last thing you saw?" a seven-year-old boy asked him. "Patrick, don't be rude," his mother cut in, and, embarrassed, she apologized. "It's okay." Moe acted as though he had overheard nothing else. "There is no 'last thing.' I can see the city." Thus, the reader enters the portal into the heart of a city come to life, where "only in New York" has become as real as the love her people share for her. Songs I Heard the City Sing, author Myrtle Brooks' collection of ten short literary fiction/inspirational fantasy stories and second in her Uplifting New York series, will be released Wednesday, November 3rd. Its core theme is humanity's great worth, and its aim, to comfort, encourage, and inspire through accounts of miraculous events occurring to everyday people in The Big Apple. Myrtle Brooks will never run out of New York City stories; for she is but the messenger for a city filled with endless tales who loves her people back. Available on Amazon in Kindle and paperback, 11/3. During that time, her first volume, Songs to New York, will be free on Kindle through 11/7. Her website is https://www.cafetierebooks.com. End
