“Barry uses lyrical language to illuminate life-changing choices. Like an old-time radio announcer conjuring up a field of green in describing the play-by-play of a baseball game, Barry conveys a you-are-there feeling in City Lights. He is so graceful a stylist that he can make even a cold-weather story…worth reading (with pleasure) three years later.” – The New York Times Book Review
Dan Barry, writer of the Times column, About New York, covers the city at its most ordinary and most extraordinary. This collection of more than 200 of those columns gives voice to the energy and spirit of the city and its residents. Whether it is a story of exceptional heroism by an everyday city dweller, or the closing of a Fulton's Fish Market signifying the end of an era, thse snapshots of city life reverberate with the dynamism of New York City. But it is not just a tale for New Yorkers. A universal humanity is evident in these stories, especially in their post-9/11 perspectives, and the challenges and vitality that keep the city of New York a symbol of endurance and strength
