      Un periodista del New York Post recibe la noticia de que su amigo Gal Ackerman, veinticinco años mayor que él, ha muerto. El suceso le obliga a cumplir un pacto tácito: rescatar de entre los centenares de cuadernos abandonados por Ackerman en un motel de Brooklyn, una novela a medio terminar. El frustrado anhelo de su autor era llegar a una sola lectora, Nadia Orlov, de quien hace años que nadie ha vuelto a saber nada. Llámame Brooklyn es una historia de amor, amistad y soledad, es un canto al misterio y el poder de la palabra escrita. Una novela caleidoscópica en la que, como en un rompecabezas, se construye un artefacto literario insólito en la tradición literaria española.
