”I’ll read anything she writes” — Emily Henry, #1 New York Times bestselling author While blogger Angela Clark explores the most romantic city in the world, she must keep her relationship, and her career, from falling apart—in this sequel to Lindsey Kelk’s I Heart New York Angela Clark is in the City of Love—but her own love life is heading for trouble. I Heart New York left Angela living the dream in fabulous New York City—her days filled with blogging for The Look magazine, texting her best friend Jenny (who’s now a stylist in Hollywood), and planning dates with her indie rocker boyfriend Alex—who seems very keen on moving in together. When Alex suggests a trip to Paris just as Angela is offered a chance to write for upscale fashion magazine Belle—the timing couldn’t be better. What’s more exciting than writing an article on the hippest spots in the romantic capital of the world? Meandering along charming streets, perusing Paris’s hot destinations—all in the name of research—Angela decides she could get used to the joie de vivre of Paris. But there’s something awry. Angela soon realizes that the road blocks she keeps encountering—lost luggage, bogus research notes, broken phone—can’t be a coincidence. Someone is conspiring to sabotage her big break. And when she spots Alex having a tête-à-tête with his ex in a Paris bar, Angela’s dreams of Parisian passion start crashing down around her. With London and her old life only a train journey away—now is the time to decide if she should stay and face the music or return to the safety of home.

With an erotic softness and quiet confidence, the young,fully-nude subjects in I Heart Boyexhibit a willingness to becelebrated by all for their beauty and openness. Posing inthe intimacy of their own homes, often in studio apartmentsin Manhattan's East Village and Lower East Side, and Williamsburg and Downtown Brooklyn, lanky,hairless bodies are posed sensually against the minimalistbackgrounds of naturally lit rooms with sparse furnishings. It's an aestheticwith nods to Larry Clark and the 80s underground musicscene, and appreciated by the likes of designer HediSlimane, American Apparel, and the most popular indiebands from New York, L.A., London, Paris, and Berlin.Yatrofsky's waif-like men-merely boys just a few years ago,bordering on androgynous, with an occasional tattoo and abit of punk swagger to match their youthful naivete-hardlyresemble even the shadow of the beefcake of generationspast. This is the undressed and carefree look of today'surban trendsetter-whose style trickles out of the young,creative circles in cities, only to be copied elsewheretomorrow. With each photograph, these sexually charged images ofmale bodies invite the viewer to dwell upon the welcometenderness of warm skin. Ultimately I Heart Boy is a series ofnudity in the purest sense; of being simply bared as humanbefore the world.

Here is New York has been chosen by The New York Times as one of the ten best books ever written about the city. The New Yorker calls it “the wittiest essay, and one of the most perceptive, ever done on the city.”

An Enlarged Heart, the exquisitely written prose debut from prize-winning poet Cynthia Zarin, is a poignantly understated exploration of the author’s experiences with love, work, and the surprise of time’s passage. In these intertwined episodes from her New York world and beyond, she charts the shifting and complicated parameters of contemporary life and family in writing that feels nearly fictional in its richness of scene, dialogue, and mood. The writer herself is the marvelously rueful character at the center of these tales, at first a bewildered young woman, navigating the terrain of new jobs and borrowed apartments and the rapidly fading New York of people like Mr. Ferri, the Upper East Side tailor (“a wren of a man with pins flashing in his teeth”). By the end, whether Zarin is writing about vanished restaurants, her decades-long love affair with her collection of coats, a newlywed journey to Italy, a child’s illness, Mary McCarthy’s file cabinet, or the inner life of the New Yorker staff she knew as a young woman, this history of the heart shows us how persistent the past is in returning to us with entirely new lessons, and that there are some truths not even a tailor can alter.
