Spring 2019 Books on NYC

From "The Sweet Flypaper of Life," Roy DeCarava and Langston Hughes's collaborative photobook/poem about Harlem life in the late 1940s and early 1950s to MoMA's history of the radical PS1 art space, to Tom Bianchi's erotic East Village Polaroids of the 1979s and 80s, these are some of our favorite NYC-centric books of Spring 2019.
