"New York is the plural city par excellence, the place of many tales. This new collection, taken from the pages of the city paper, gives us a new luxuriance of New York stories, neither neatly splashy nor narrowly sociological, but instead with the spice and eccentricity and plural energy that New Yorkers will recognize as ours and non-New Yorkers may wish was theirs." -- Adam Gopnik,author of Through The Children’s Gate: A Home In New York
"The City section was an invaluable counterpoint, almost a stowaway, on the cruise liner of the Sunday New York Times. It delivered news that stays newsindelible and intimate stories of city life, by turns disturbing, amusing, and enchanting. The pieces in this collection are as alive now as they were when they first saw newsprint. Reading them again, even across a distance of years, was like bumping into old friends." -- Thomas Beller,author of The Sleep-Over Artist and How to Be a Man
"Former section editor Rosenblum gathers 50 of the best pieces of the postSeptember 11 era by masters of the form including Edwidge Danticat and Francine Prosethis rich sampling delivers." * Publishers Weekly *
