"Quite simply, I was in love with New York. I do not mean 'love' in any colloquial way, I mean that I was in love with the city, the way you love the first person who ever touches you and you never love anyone quite that way again." - Joan Didion
The Lilliputian hotel room, once slept in by sailors, now perfect for the solo traveler; the cinema that restores Golden Age glamor to the movie-going experience; the modern pharmacist who will cure your cold (or hangover) with a tonic; the spot to sip a Manhattan while gazing at pictures by Warhol and Basquiat; the market that offers a true slice of the Lower East Side; the high end burger and the hidden one; the pizza place that created a neighborhood; the surf town a subway away.
Soul of New York is written by Tarajia Morrell, journalist and native New Yorker, and produced by Fany P chiodat, founder of My Little Paris, the influential newsletter-cum-lifestyle brand.
To bring this travel guide to life, Tarajia worked along with the talented photographer Liz Barclay & illustrator Abbie Zuidema.
