Twenty-five years after the printing of his seminal 1988 book, Invisible City, Ken Schles revisits his archive and fashions§a narrative of lost youth: a delirious, peripatetic walk in the evening air of an irretrievable Downtown New York as he saw§and experienced it. Night Walk is a substantive and intimate chronicle of New York s last pre-Internet bohemian outpost,§a stream of consciousness portrayal that peels back layers of petulance and squalor to find the frisson and striving of a life lived amongst the rubble. Here, Schles embodies the flâneur as Sontag defines it, as a connoisseur of empathy, cruising the urban inferno, the voyeuristic stroller who discovers the city as a landscape of voluptuous extremes. We see in Night Walk a new and revelatory Ulysses for the 21st century: a searching tale of wonder and desire, life and love in the dying hulk of a ruined American city.
