The story

The work continues as an overdubbed narrator recites a succession of ideas for Chapter One of a book about a man who loves New York City.

As the friends walk home after the double date, Yale confides to Isaac he is having an affair with another woman.

They walk to a park under the Queensboro Bridge and talk until the lights on the bridge signal sunrise.
