New York's Timeless Tales
Few cities have the dynamic personality and narrative power of New York City. Its vibrant society, streets, history, and energy are more than just a setting or backdrop. A long-time muse for storytellers, New York City is a character in its own right. This was particularly evident in two books that I read this year: the contemporary novel Mrs. by Caitlin Macy and the historical narrative The Personal Librarian by Marie Benedict and Victoria Christopher Murray. In both stories, the city isn't just a backdrop but a vital, living part of the story. Both offer a window into the high society of New York but from different eras and perspectives.
