Decoding Manhattan: Island of Diagrams, Maps, and Graphics features Call A Wrecking Ball to Make a Window

On Friday, I went to the post office to pick up my copy of the really astounding new book Decoding Manhattan: Island of Diagrams, Maps, and Graphics By Antonis Antoniou, and Steven Heller. The book, the idea and some pieces of which you can get a kind of preview at Lit Hub, includes a remarkably sharp image of my letterpress book Call a Wrecking Ball to Make a Window.

I am humbled – really and truly – to be part of this incredible collection, and really excited for this piece to be out in the world in this form and with such company (Call a Wrecking Ball is just a few pages before a painting by one of my all time favorite artists, Martin Wong, and is opposite one of a couple of brilliant diagrams of New York streets by Leslie Roberts, and there is just so much in here).
