Review

"Rem Koolhaas' Delirious New York is all of that. It combines a singular history of the city with a lively and sometimes outrageous "retroactive manifesto" about architecture and city planning. The result is a highly idiosyncratic work of art in which text works intimately with illustration, and many types of writing dance together."

"Back by popular demand--part love poem, part psychological thriller, part polemical manifesto on Manhattan's history of excess--is a new, slicker version of the original."

"A hit book from a hot architect."

Publisher's note

Describes the effect of the overcrowding of Manhattan on the development of New York's architecture, and of the latter on the culture of the city, and argues that they are the results of a deliberate, if unexpressed, program.

Annotation

A mixture of theory and social commentary on the architecture of Manhattan. Winner of an American Institute of Architects International Architecture Book Award for 1995-96.
