Résumé
The author has been visiting this city of contradictions for years and beginning with "the most sensational city walk in the world" - crossing the Brooklyn Bridge - he illuminates the past and present of Manhattan and writes about life… in the lesser known boroughs of New York: Queens, Brooklyn and Staten Island. It is a city of superlatives, both high and low, a place of infinite variety, powerful urges, insatiable energy and boundless appetite. 1988.
