My New York
My New York | Alessandra Mattanza
5 posts | 2 read
Where is a story born? From a glance, a word, a voice, a fragment of a sequence of notes that form a melody, a moment, an indelible trace of memory like a snapshot, frozen for ever in time. New York is a city to read like a book, one containing millions of stories. It becomes known by looking through it, page by page, at each view of the streets, and by knowing how to listen to it. Because New York is not only the city of the thousand lights, but also of the thousand voices, with its infinite noises and sounds that provide its soundtrack like a boundless film. We want to gather together the voices that have given a soul to the city, shaping its history, contributing to the rebirth of a neighbourhood, as if spreading its image throughout the world in the fields of the arts, finance, economy, science, cinematography and music. From Robert De Niro to Woody Allen to Jay McInerney to Martin Scorsese and Daniel Libeskind, from Spike Lee to Candace Bushnell.

These pages are from the book Governors Island: Photographs by Lisa Kereszi and Andrew Moore. (Not in Litsy database). Governors Island is my hometown. These photographs were taken when the island was uninhabited - no longer anyone's home and not yet the public park it is now. I can't tell you how strange it is to have my old home be a tourist attraction and playground.

This is not book related at all, I just really love this picture my friend took of me yesterday and I feel that it basically sums up who I am and how I live my life. You're welcome.

DaniRa Beautiful! 💕 8y
Josie Love your curls! ❤️ 8y
Soubhiville It's great! If this pic sums you up I'd say you're quirky, a little shy, but a lot of fun! 8y

katedensen @DaniRa @Josie @LeahBergen @LauraBeth @Natalia Awww, thanks all! ❤ @Soubhiville Definitely quirky but not shy at all (I'm the rare extroverted bookworm). @Lynnsoprano Yessss! We also need an emoji 🤷🏻‍♀️ @Laalaleighh They are the best! They look expensive but I literally bought them for $20 on clearance at Macy's. @Beckys_Books Trying to! Some days are easier than others ❤ 8y
