AARONOVITCH BEN THE MASQUERADES OF SPRING

Meet Augustus Berrycloth-Young - flaneur extraordinaire and Englishman abroad - as he
chronicles the Jazz Age from his perch atop the city that never sleeps.    'Gussie' is not one
to shun shut-eye himself  however. But his peaceful luxuriation is about to be rudely awakened
by the arrival of an unexpected guest.    Enter his old friend Thomas Nightingale  who has
braved the Atlantic passage pursuing the matter of a rather intriguing saxophone said to
possess a strange power over those who play it.    This deeply inconvenient affair will rouse
Gussie from his warm bed for the cold shores of Long Island - and down to the jazz clubs of
Harlem where music  magic  and madness haunt the shadows...  ****  PRAISE FOR THE RIVERS OF
