Second edition with a new essay on the late Mike Davis, legendary author of City of Quartz, a new essay on local history of time and space, and a teaching guide to help educators incorporate the book into their curriculum.
The poems and essays in Letters to My City combine two decades of field experience, research, personal observations, and stories told to the author, Mike Sonksen, a third-generation Los Angeles native, by his grandfather and other family members, to interrogate all sides of Los Angeles, its streets, its people, its neighborhoods, as a means to examine the postmodern metropolis.
