About this listen

An exhilarating and intimate look at what happened when the pandemic emptied the city―and a rebellious energy reclaimed the streets.

Author, social critic, and “New York City’s career elegist” (New York Times), Jeremiah Moss felt alienated in a town that had become suburbanized and sanitized. Then lockdown launched an unprecedented urban experiment: What happens when an entire social class abandons the city? Out in streets made vibrant by New Yorkers left behind, Moss found a sense of freedom he never thought possible. Participating in a historic explosion of protest, resistance, and spontaneity, from queer BLM marches to exuberant outdoor dance parties, he discovers that, without “hyper-normal” people to constrain it, New York can be more creative, connected, humane, and joyful. In this genre-bending work of “autotheory,” Moss gives an account of his renewed sense of place as a transgender man, braiding the narrative with psychoanalysis, literature, and queer theory, as he offers valuable insight into the way public space―and the spaces inside us―are controlled and can be set free.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

A melancholy tale of hope (kinda)

Great follow up to Vanishing New York, a chronicle of a unique time in modern history, although recent, some people would like us just to forget.

Tegan Quin Brought Me Here, Excellent first read of 2024!

Excellent blow by blow storytelling of queer liberation and joy in a time where joy was often thought to be robbed from us, especially queer folks.
