From debut novelist Eugene Havens, Marble on a Table is an unexpected love story between two wounded outsiders seeking redemption in dazzling, heartless New York City.
Rasmus Smith is a shrewd New Yorker who believes lofty ideals are for other people. That is until a sudden moral dilemma makes him listen to his conscience. Rasmus tries to raise his standards but watches his life spin out of control.
It leads him to Alli. A captivating stranger, Alli lives a life of conscience that is inspiring and a little reckless. Rasmus is drawn to Alli but knows a vulnerable mindset in New York is a bad idea. A price must be paid.
Rasmus is convinced idealism doesn't belong in the big city. But if he doesn't rediscover his lofty ideals, he'll stand by and watch Alli lose it all.
