In the revised edition of this classic collection, thirty writers
share their own stories of loving and leaving New York, capturing
the mesmerizing allure the city has always had for writers, poets,
and wandering spirits. Their essays often begin as love stories do,
with the passion of something newly discovered-the crush of subway
crowds, the streets filled with manic energy, and the sudden,
unblinking certainty that this is the only place on Earth where one
can become exactly who she is meant to be. They also share the
grief that comes like a gut-punch, when the grand metropolis loses
its magic and the pressures of New York's frenetic life wear thin
for even the most dedicated dwellers. As friends move away, rents
soar, and love -- still -- remains just out of reach, each writer's
goodbye is singular and universal, just like New York itself.
