Summary:
An unflinching chronicle of gentrification in the twenty-first century, and a love letter to
lost
New
York
, by the creator of the popular and incendiary blog
Vanishing
New
York
. For generations,
New
York
City
has been a mecca for artists, writers, and other hopefuls longing to be part of
its
rich cultural exchange and unique social fabric. But today, modern gentrification is transforming the
city
from an exceptional, iconoclastic metropolis into a suburbanized luxury zone with a price tag only the one percent can afford. Jeremiah Moss is the pen name of Griffin Hansbury. His writing on the
city
has appeared in the
New
York
Times and online for The
New
Yorker. As Hansbury, he is the author of The Nostalgist, a novel, and works as a psychoanalyst in
New
York
City
.
