Hardcover. Condition: new. Avillez, Joana (illustrator). Hardcover. A classic of literary reporting from one of The New Yorkers most iconic writers reveals the vibrant world of old New York and the ordinary people who made it great, now with illustrations by renowned artist Joana Avillez and an introduction by filmmaker and writer Josh Safdie.Joana Avillezs illustrations bring to life the work of a man who had unparalleled ability to see the unseen, to believe the unbelievable, and to gently pry into the lives of New Yorks greatest eccentrics.Lena DunhamThere have been few writers as distinctly tied to New York City throughout its long literary history as Joseph Mitchell. As an acclaimed essayist for The New Yorker, Mitchell wandered the alleyways, graveyards, saloons, and storefronts of midcentury New York, immortalizing city dwellers with his indelible pen portraits. In The Bottom of the Harbor, first published sixty years ago, Mitchell transports us to the fabled vanishing terrain he was most magnetically drawn to: New Yorks waterfront. In Up in the Old Hotel, Mitchell and the eponymous proprietor of Sloppy Louies seafood restaurant explore the upper reaches of the harbors storied, abandoned old hotel. The Rats on the Waterfront examines the habits of New Yorks greasiest residents. And widely considered one of the greatest works of nonfiction ever printed in The New Yorker, Mr. Hunters Grave draws the reader into the eddies of time surrounding a particular graveyard on the South Shore of Staten Island.This new edition features stunning original black-and-white illustrations by another inveterate New Yorker, Joana Avillez. Raised near the Fulton Fish Market, the place that Mitchell credited with first making him feel truly at home in the city, Avillez has long turned her keen eye and nimble pen on the everyday comings and goings of city denizens. Her ebullient style adds another dimension to Joseph Mitchells vivid character studies.The Bottom of the Harbor is a timeless love letter to New York, an elegy to what it once was, and an expression of hope for its future. Working decades apart, Mitchell and Avillez craft a loving tribute to their shared home. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. First Revised Edition, 1st printing. Foreword by Luc Sante. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in AS NEW condition. "On the centennial of Joseph Mitchell's birth, here is a new edition of the classic collection containing his most celebrated pieces about New York City. Fifty years after its original publication, THE BOTTOM OF THE HARBOR is still considered a fundamental New York book. Every story Mitchell tells, every person he introduces, every scene he describes is illuminated by his passion for the eccentrics and eccentricities of his beloved adopted city. All of the pieces here are connected in one way or another---some directly, some with a kind of mysterious circuitousness---to New York's fabled waterfront, the terrain that Mitchell brilliantly made his own. They tell of a life that has passed---of vacant hotel rooms, deserted communities, once-thriving fishing areas that are now polluted and studded with wrecks. Included are 'Up in the Old Hotel,' a portrait of Louis Morino, the proprietor of a restaurant called (to his disgust) Sloppy Louie's; 'The Rats on the Waterfront,' which has inspired countless writers to attempt portraits of these most demonized New Yorkers; and 'Mr. Hunter's Grave,' widely considered to be the finest single piece of nonfiction to have ever appeared in the pages of The New Yorker." [jacket copy] Pristine handy-sized hardcover w/sharp corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding; Near Fine jacket has slight crinkle (no tears) on back top edge above author's portrait, o/w intact, unmarked, & all quite presentable.
