About the Book

Miss Subways

New York Times bestselling author David Duchovny reimagines the Irish mythological figure of Emer in MISS SUBWAYS, a darkly comic fantasy love story set in New York City.

Emer is just a woman living in New York City who takes the subway, buys ice cream from the bodega on the corner, has writerly aspirations, and lives with her boyfriend, Con. But is this life she lives the only path she’s on? Taking inspiration from the myth of Emer and Cuchulain and featuring an all-star cast of mythical figures from all over the world, David Duchovny’s darkly funny fantasy novel is one woman’s trippy, mystical journey down parallel tracks of time and love. On the way, Emer will battle natural and supernatural forces to find her true voice, power and destiny.

A fairy tale of love lost and regained, MISS SUBWAYS is also a love letter to the city that enchants us all: New York.

Audiobook available; read by David Duchovny and Tea Leoni, with West Duchovny
