"Some street photographers hide behind phone booths like paparazzis so their subject won't be aware of their presence, but for Stanton it's precisely that awkward interaction, the tearing down of the wall between strangers, that he covets." - The Huffington Post, Some street photographers hide behind phone booths like paparazzi so their subject won't be aware of their presence, but for Stanton it's precisely that awkward interaction, the tearing down of the wall between strangers, that he covets., "An instant publishing phenomenon." -- The New York Times "Visually arresting and disarmingly deep...

  • Wonderful little book to peruse!

    What a cool book! The pictures of the random people on the streets of New York are beautiful and the stories behind the pictures are interesting, sweet, insightful, funny, and sometimes heart wrenching. I love HONY!

  • Boring compared to current content

    Boring compared to current content posted on HONY. this is very basic and doesn’t really get into the stories in a deep compelling manner. Kind of disappointing. Just donated it after I read through it briefly.

  • Unusual NY through the lens of a non-New Yorker.

    I was born and raised in Manhattan, and got this as a gift for my sister. To me, it shows less diversity than the city represents, focusing mostly on the "unusual, kinky" people, and East Village and Brooklyn residents take up most of the book. Not much of Harlem, Wall St, Madison Ave, or the ethnic pockets of NY (Indian communities, Chinese, Greek area of Queens). It's NYC through the lens of a non-New Yorker, IMO. But, nice photographs, interesting captions and comments. Sister (east village resident) liked having this.

  • I love New York and this book helps enhanced the love!!

    Love this book. Really good copy and photography. Really gives a sense of the people.
