"There's so much passion and humor and pure life force on every page that you'll find yourself giddy, dizzy, overwhelmed." --Dave Eggers

In the early morning of August 7, 1974, Philippe Petit performed his high-wire walk between the Twin Towers while amazed New Yorkers looked on. Weaving together the disparate lives of the era's city dwellers -- a mother-daughter team of prostitutes, a radical priest, a mother who lost a son in Vietnam, and others -- Let the Great World Spin is a paean to a people and a time in America life.
