Industry Reviews "A hit book from a hot architect." Gornick
"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." Gornick
"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." (03/19/2009)
