Centered on the front are figures that look away from you in distracted or pensive positions. You feel they might catch you staring at them and be annoyed. This unusual, enigmatic design leaves you with more questions than answers, like looking at a snapshot you find on the sidewalk. The stories inside reflect this unusual approach, telling challenging tales of low-key, working New Yorkers of the outer boroughs...
