Summary: Amazing Tribute to the Phenomena of NYC
Comment: This collection was the centerpiece of a course I recently took on Literary NY. Every piece of writing in this collection is memorable, evoking the timelessness of the place, from Washington Irving to Joan Didion, with a wide spectrum between. There are wonderful observational and personal essays, socio-political satires, poetry and short fiction all highlighting the on-going phenomena of this most fascinating of cities. The writers, some well-known and some lost in their time, all record from the heart. What struck me most while reading these wonderful pieces, is how some things truly never change, and how so many of the 'progressive' changes irrevocably destroyed the natural rhythms and space. There is something of interest here for everyone. I strongly recommend this collection.

Summary: Delightful and Intriguing Read
Comment: I'm a transplant from San Francisco but have always been a New Yorker at heart.
Every morning, while drinking my coffee, I read a few of these essays, poems and stories. I love this island and city and I love reading about it.
Truly a delight for any New Yorker or New York lover.
