About this audiobook

The audiobook consists of a selection of reenacted scenes and quotes, performed by a full cast of New York actors and nonactors, and is enhanced with the recordings of ambient street sounds from across the boroughs.

A breathtaking new audiobook 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.

Embracing all five boroughs, Dear New York is 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.
