"The story of a gigolo from New York City played by Joe Dallesandro. A film about the flow of desire and money. Produced by Andy Warhol. Nothing more to say."

"“It covers 80 years in New York, and so many different scenes. I hadn’t really known about Sunnyside Gardens as a planned retirement community, and also a Communist stronghold.” -KG"

Dreamland captures what it was like to be in the Guilded Age but not rich. He weaves the chracters within the setting of New York City and Coney Island just as a master would weave a tapestry. The combination of shirtwaist workers, gamblers, and gangsters makes this an enjoyable read. It can get a bit confusing but if you know anything about New York at this time life was always a bit confusing and harried.

An ok action thriller as drastic measures are made to try and uncover terrorist cells operating in New York. Sadly still all to relevant to the world we live in today.
