Jagged Mountain Range


"New York is like that -- like some jagged mountain range, dizzy heights of extravagant wealth soaring right next to murky depths of depraved poverty, each seeming all the more extreme by the sudden contrast to its Opposite."
Natalie Wexler, A More Obedient Wife

From Somewhere to Nowhere

George Washington Bridge

"My goodness, I miss New York. I miss it almost everyday and I definitely miss it right now. I can't really think of a particularly articulate way to put it. You know what I'm talking about, though. It's the sheer volume and rush and energy, the inescapable feeling that something is going on. I remember leaving NYC so clearly, thinking that I was going from somewhere to nowhere."
Matt Hern, Common Ground in a Liquid City
