The City - Sideways (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781965313022)

Cities can seem like living, breathing organisms. They have networks of roads, power, and plumbing. They can have their own personalities. They can grow and change with time. And yet, cities can also seem timeless. It's possible a city can hold all of the times and all of the places it has ever been, and that if you look sideways in just the right way, sometimes you can see those other times and places. And sometimes, if you need to do it badly enough, you can see a time and a place that is yet to come.

Through these fifteen short stories you'll travel with Lyn McConchie to Wellington, New Zealand, where she will take you to places that might not be on the tourist maps. She'll introduce you to statues that defend the innocent. She'll take you to penthouse rooftops where birds thought extinct might reappear. She'll show us the doorways in the subway that can take us to other times and places. She'll even show you websites that you can only find when you really need them. But you can only make this trip if you're willing to look at the city-sideways.
