Krátky popis
'This is such a rich book, both visually and narratively' - Isabel
Greenberg, author of Young Hag'A ravishing new take on a storied
city' - Katherine May, New York Times bestselling author of,
Wintering and EnchantmentAt once heartrending and enlivening, this
phenomenal graphic memoir is not another ode to New York but a
meditation on how easy it is to fall beautifully, ridiculously in
loveOn her first night in New York, Kay Sohini sits on the tarmac
of JFK airport making an inventory of all she’s left behind in
India. Kay realises two things: she's finally made it to the city
that made her in celluloid and prose from across the Pacific –
Kerouac, Friends, Plath – and that trauma she’s endured in her
relationship has left gaping holes in her memory. In New York, at
last, Kay has room to begin the work of piecing herself back
together through art and food.But as her personal story becomes a
window onto a mystifying metropolis both inhospitable and inspiring
to the many who call it home, Kay embarks on an electric
exploration of how to forge the self and a life of one’s own today.
At once heartrending and enlivening, This Beautiful, Ridiculous
City is not another ode to New York but a phenomenal meditation on
how easy it is to fall beautifully, ridiculously in love with
places – and indeed people – that do not always love us back but
somehow still save us in weird, unexpected ways.
