You've sauntered through Central Park, ridden the famous subway, and seen every sight that your guidebooks suggest - but, sigh - New York City still leaves you uninspired. With this petite paperback sitting on your shelf, your blase attitude toward the Big Apple won’t be alone! Compiled by Avery Monsen and Jory John, this book examines each neighborhood, attraction, or notion about New York with a series of witty observations and objections, followed by an outline of its pros, cons, and a final, comical conclusion. Illustrated with color photographs that are peppered with additional tongue-in-cheek tidbits, this sarcastic survey of the ‘City that Never Sleeps’ will speak to your “so what?” sentiments, whether you’re a New Yorker who wasn’t swept away by the soot, or a one-time visitor who won’t be writing home about it.
