Product Information

There are infinite stories about New York City, here are 41 in haiku form. In this love letter to his favorite city, lifelong New Yorker Peter C. Goldmark, Jr. has crafted a collection of haiku that are simultaneously nostalgic and perceptive. Touching on everything from the city's beloved landmarks to the rising costs of living and the famous lie, "There is a train directly behind this one," the poems in this book capture the true essence of this special place. Given everything New York has endured recently, this book offers a timely celebration of a unique and wonderful city and its people--written to honor the ties and realities that bind them together. Alongside the sweet, and often funny, haiku poems, wistful illustrations help bring New York to life. From the preface by the author: "And then as 2019 and 2020 unfolded, both our country and our city came under stress. The adventure in self-government in America began to wobble seriously. And then the COVID pandemic hit. All this made me realize how much I valued my city--its beauty, its diversity and variety, its remarkable people, its grit and resilience...and how fragile and unique it was." A portion of the proceeds supports Citizens NYC, a non-profit that helps neighborhoods work together to meet challenges like COVID.

Reviews
These haikus capture what it's like to live in New York City. From riding the subway to NYC's resilience, these poems are NYC in a nutshell...The short poems range from insightful words on the city's role as a safe harbor and home for the ambitious to the frustrating and wonderful aspects of living here. -- Time Out New York, "...this short book is meant as a 'timely celebration of a unique and wonderful city and its people'--which is not to say that it ignores the realities of living there...The 'old city is ill,' so it is understandable that Mr. Goldmark, Jr...should get a little sentimental about it. He happens to like New York, and who can blame him?" -- Times Literary Supplement, "With affection, deep connection, sadness and celebration, Peter Goldmark's haiku jewels, accompanied by his daughter Sandra Goldmark's evocative drawings, capture the essence of New York City. A touching reminder for residents and lovely take-home memento for visitors." --Peggy Dulany Rockefeller, Bridge builder, founder and chair of Synergos Institute, "These haikus capture what it's like to live in New York City. From riding the subway to NYC's resilience, these poems are NYC in a nutshell...The short poems range from insightful words on the city's role as a safe harbor and home for the ambitious to the frustrating and wonderful aspects of living here." -- Time Out New York, "Peter Goldmark's haikus are lovely and pungent. They evoke a contemplation of the great, old city. And Sandra Goldmark's artwork is witty and felt. Or, to put it in a few syllables: A father writes words. A daughter draws lines beneath. Springtime in New York." --Alan Alda, Elegant and eloquent, this book shows us New York as we've never seen it. The urban grit is still there, but Peter Goldmark brings it to us through the lens of poetry, revealing the truth under the toughness. For all of us lovers of New York, this book captures the essence of the city that doesn't sleep, but never tires. --Jeffrey Katzenberg, Co-Founder of Dreamworks Pictures and Dreamworks Animation, former Assistant to the Mayor of New York City, "This small book of haikus--a tribute to New York City--is a book for our times. It captures the city's essence, its power, its vulnerability and its resilience. Accompanied by witty, insightful illustrations, it is an antidote for anyone who fears for the city's future." --H. Carl McCall, Chairman Emeritus, State University of New York, "A short and sweet (and witty and earnest) collection of haikus by lifelong New Yorker Peter C. Goldmark Jr., accompanied by his daughter's equally simple and pensive illustrations. A portion of proceeds from the book will go toward supporting the nonprofit CitizensNYC." -- Curbed, ...this short book is meant as a 'timely celebration of a unique and wonderful city and its people'--which is not to say that it ignores the realities of living there...The 'old city is ill,' so it is understandable that Mr. Goldmark, Jr...should get a little sentimental about it.

Springtime in New York. --Alan Alda, "Peter exposed the dirt and the beauty of New York at the same time in well-structured puzzle-like haikus. You will want to reread them over and over again." -- SandboxWorld.com, A short and sweet (and witty and earnest) collection of haikus by lifelong New Yorker Peter C.
