New York: MJF Books, 1997. First edition. Hardcover. Fine/fine. Marvin Bileck. The author "thought he wanted to concentrate on New York itself, describing a series of walks around the city. But what emerged was the story of his own boyhood encounters with it, starting from Brownsville, the Brooklyn Jewish neighborhood of his birth, then stretching out to alluring, mysterious Manhattan and from there to the world. Book is in fine condition with a tiny bump on the back cover's bottom edge. Dust jacket is fine, unclipped.

A literary icon's ';singular and beautiful' memoir of growing up as a first-generation Jewish American in Brownsville, Brooklyn (The New Yorker). A classic portrait of immigrant life in the early decades of the twentieth century, A Walker in the City is a tour of tenements, subways, and synagoguesbut also a universal story of the desires and fears we experience as we try to leave our small, familiar neighborhoods for something new. With vivid imagery and sensual detailthe smell of half-sour pickles, the dry rattle of newspapers, the women in their shapeless flowered housedressesAlfred Kazin recounts his boyhood walks through this working-class community, and his eventual foray across the river to ';the city,' the mysterious, compelling Manhattan, where treasures like the New York Public Library and the Metropolitan Museum beckoned. Eventually, he would travel even farther, building a life around books and language and literature and exploring all that the world had to offer. ';The whole texture, color, and sound of life in this tenement realm... is revealed as tapestried, as dazzling, as full of lush and varied richness as an Arabian bazaar.' The New York Times.
