The City – An Illustrated Guide to Seeing What’s Around You

Marcella Nicodemo & Andrea Q

Let’s wander around to discover where we live.
It’s easy enough to answer the question, “Which city do you live in?” But what do we really know about the places we call home?

Every day we cross its streets by car, on foot, or by bike; we head to school, to the pool, to work, or the theater; we fi nd ourselves in hospitals for better or worse reasons; we walk our dogs in the park, shop at the market, or renew our passports at the local police station. All these moments, big and small, make us citizens.

With vivid storytelling and striking visuals, Marcella Nicodemo and Andrea Q invite us to explore an almost universal City— alive, dynamic, functional, and full of character.

A book designed to spark curiosity, deepen our understanding, and help us appreciate the beauty and complexity of our cities.
