Description The Washington Post "10 Best Graphic Novels of the Year" New
York magazine "The Year\'s Most Giftable Coffee-Table Books" Newsday "Best Fall Books" The Verge "10 Best Comics of the Year" Oklahoman " Best Graphic Novels of the Year" Winner of the New
York City Book Award From the #1 NYT bestselling author of Can\'t We Talk About Something More Pleasant? , Roz
Chast, an "absolutely laugh-out-loud hysterical" (AP) illustrated ode/guide/thank-you to Manhattan. New Yorker cartoonist and NYT bestselling author Roz
Chast, native Brooklynite-turned-suburban commuter deemed the quintessential New Yorker, has always been intensely alive to the glorious spectacle that is Manhattan--the daily clash of sidewalk racers and dawdlers, the fascinating range of dress codes, and the priceless, nutty outbursts of souls from all walks of life. For
Chast, adjusting to life outside the city was surreal (you can own trees ? you have to drive ?), but she recognized that the reverse was true for her kids. On trips into town, they would marvel at the strange visual world of Manhattan--its blackened sidewalk gum wads, "those West Side Story -things" (fire escapes)--its crazily honeycombed systems and grids. Told through Chast\'s singularly zany, laugh-out-loud, touching, and true cartoons,
Going into
Town is part New
York stories (the "overheard and overseen" of the island borough), part personal and practical guide to walking, talking, renting, and venting--an irresistible, one-of-a-kind love letter to the city. About the Author Roz Chast grew up in Brooklyn. Her cartoons began appearing in the New Yorker in 1978, where she has since published more than one thousand. She wrote and illustrated the #1 NYT bestseller (100+ weeks) Can\'t We Talk about Something More Pleasant? , a National Book Critics Circle Award and Kirkus Prize winner and finalist for the National Book Award; What I Hate: From A to Z ; and her cartoon collections The Party, After You Left and Theories of Everything . She was awarded the Harvey Award Hall of Fame Award.
