SALON EXCLUSIVE: Craig Taylor reads from 'New Yorkers'

For those of you who remember our Shoreditch House days, we launched Craig Taylor’s 'Londoners' there to great acclaim. The Canadian journalist is part of our beloved alumni so while we can’t celebrate his follow-up book 'New Yorkers' in person, we’re thrilled to offer our listeners the next best thing. Craig’s new book captures the city’s vibrancy, diversity and resilience no matter what’s thrown at it. The indomitable spirit of its residents in their relentless effort to ‘make it’ shines through. Drawn from millions of words, hundreds of interviews, and six years in the making, this book is a grand portrait of an irrepressible city and a hymn to the vitality of its people. New Yorkers is published by John Murray and available now in all good bookshops. If you can’t make it to your independent bookshop then you can shop with us online through Bookshop.org. ‘An incredible achievement. Insightful, funny, surprising, profound, moving and honest. This could be the great American novel - and it isn't even a novel.’ Joe Dunthorne, author of Submarine Podcast produced and edited by Megan Bay Dorman Learn more about your ad choices.
