A breathtaking new book from the #1 bestselling author of Humans of New York and one of the great storytellers of our time--Dear New York is a love letter to the streets, stories, and souls that define the heart of the city and its people.
Creator of the global sensation "Humans of New York" and author of four #1 New York Times bestsellers, Brandon Stanton has shown us a unique side of our communities, our neighbors, and ourselves. Now, he takes us further and deeper than he's ever gone before.
Opening with a deeply moving prologue that reads like a train ride through the city, the book expands into nearly five hundred full-color pages of portraits and stories from every corner of the city. With more than 75 percent of the photographs and stories in Β Dear New York having never been published before, there's a new discovery on every page.
Embracing all five boroughs, Β Dear New York is a book filled with contradictions, yet brimming with life. It is an unprecedented portrait of the world's greatest city, and a personal tribute to the people who provide its soul.

Iβm a fan of Brandon Stanton. He does great work.
Such an inspiring, fun and touching book. I love to follow each story in Humans of New York.
There are some beautiful people, stories, and photographs in this book!But I would advise some caution when buying.There are some extremely sexually explicit writings I was not expecting.I certainly would not want to censor the book in any way but after watching the feature about the book and author on CBS it just wasnβt what I was expecting.
The media could not be loaded.
Great book! It has excerpts of some of the posts on social media that Iβve been following for years. The photos are top notch and the book itself is heavy and substantial. In a world of electronic reading devices, this is a nice change of pace that I look forward to sharing with people. I hope libraries pick up on this and add them to their collection.
Great book. Well done Brandon!
