I love Roz Chast and her cartoons are one of my favorite parts of the New Yorker. I love her sense of humor and the million tiny details she packs into every frame. This book started as a guide for her daughter when she moved into the city from the suburbs, but it's also a love letter to New York--a mix of advice, humor, and a little nostalgia. The only flaw is that it could have been much longer. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

"For native Brooklynite Roz Chast, adjusting to life in the suburbs (where people own trees!?) was surreal. But she recognized that for her kids, the reverse was true. On trips into town, they would marvel at the strange world of Manhattan: its gum-wad-dotted sidewalks, honey-combed streets, and 'those West Side Story-things' (fire escapes). Their wonder inspired 'Going into Town,' part playful guide, part New York stories, and part love letter to the city, told through Chast's laugh-out-loud, touching, and true cartoons"--Amazon.com.

Reminded me a bit of Tokyo On Foot. If there are more graphic novel love letters to urban environments out there, I would like to read them!
