As we learnt years ago when Brandon Stanton first started the Humans of New York blog, sometimes the most basic of concepts can yield the most fascinating results, so the Humans of New York: Stories book is here to give you a glimpse into some of the most ordinary yet spectacular features. While the previous Humans of New York publication was essentially a carbon copy of the blog, Humans of New York: Stories features that same content, but with longer stories that delve a little deeper into the people that are focused on.
An ideal way to see the beauty in everyone around you, Humans of New York: Stories makes a great gift to a friend, as a coffee table book or even just something to crack into on rainy days.
