| ‘Thank heaven for 'New York in Store', a delightful celebration of only-in-Manhattan retail … As fresh, exciting and diverting as your first dazzling visit to the Big Apple, 'New York in Store' captures the mood of the ultimate shopping city’ | | – The Gloss Magazine |
Here is a quirky look at one hundred of New York’s offbeat shops and shop windows, from such Manhattan mainstays as Macy’s and Katz’s Delicatessen to the idiosyncratic, including the 99¢ store on East 14th Street, or Dr Rico Perez’s drugstore in the Bronx.
At a time when much of New York is succumbing to the uniformity of the mall, these are the shops that are bucking the trend.
• This colourful antidote to corporate blandness follows the same format as cult hits London in Store and Paris in Store • All types of store are here! Track them down with calling cards, which detail the shops' names and locations
Valérie Weill and Philippe Chancel co-wrote Paris in Store and London in Store. Novelist and poet Harry Mathews is a native New Yorker, and now divides his time between Paris and London.
