Reviews
"In their varied voices, however, the Guidebook's authors go deeper than reiterating the neighborhood notion by hitting at the power of place and describing how a neighborhood can shape us, often from a young age. ... The Guidebook offers a buffet of places you might want to visit, interesting facts, and memorable moments. It leaves you on your own to piece the map together, which is a welcome challenge. " -- Max Budovich, South Side Weekly, "A stirring, entertaining and informative collection of works ... [Brings] to vivid life the diverse people and wildly divergent experiences that populate Chicago. The Chicago Neighborhood Guidebook is a symphony of the city - unharmonious, often tragic, sometimes ridiculous, yet always home." -- Alex Bean, Chicago Detours, "You would be a fool not to have this on your bookshelf; it will introduce you to Chicago today. ... An essential and tremendously enjoyable book." -- Rick Kogan, After Hours With Rick Kogan, "It's a daunting task to capture the city in its fullness; tellingly, one of Chicago's greatest spokesman, Studs Terkel, managed to portray the city's richness in his weekly radio show and books by interviewing Chicagoans from all walks of life. It's that same spirit of open mindedness and eclecticism that animates The Chicago Neighborhood Guidebook , a collection of 45 essays, poems, and photographs from Belt Publishing, where contributors from all corners of the city share space, each individual neighborhood weaving together into an evocative tapestry." -- Tanner Howard, Curbed Chicago, "Chicago is in the throes of change on every corner. Politically, we have a more progressive body that is hopefully moving in a more desired direction; deindustrialization and gentrification are jolting forces hitting both North, West and South Side communities; displacement and business turnover is common. ... Belt Publishing's new book "The Chicago Neighborhood Guidebook," edited by journalist Martha Bayne, features short essays, poems, articles and photo essays that capture the city's change and personal stories of just about every Chicago neighborhood. The stories reflect the city's change by diving into the identity of each neighborhood from a personal perspective and with a deep love of how place influences a person." -- Ariel Parella-Aureli, LoganSquarist, "Required reading. ... Reinforces what an amazing and interesting place [Chicago] is, filled with talented writers and artists who contributed to the book. But it also requires the reader to see the city anew, to confront its problems and not fall back on empty sentiment." -- John Warner, Chicago Tribune

Synopsis
Dubbed "required reading" by the Chicago Tribune, The Chicago Neighborhood Guidebook offers an intimate, idiosyncratic look at the third-largest city in the country., Part of Belt's Neighborhood Guidebook Series, The Chicago Neighborhood Guidebook is an intimate exploration of the Windy City's history and identity. "Required reading"-- The Chicago Tribune Officially, Chicago has 77 neighborhoods. Unofficially, though, that number's closer to 200. But what does that mean for the people who actually call Chicago home? In an eclectic collection of essays, poems, photos, and visual art, T he Chicago Neighborhood Guidebook aims to explore the city's overlooked corners. Edited by Martha Bayne, and with help from the Read/Write Library, the book builds on 2017's critically acclaimed Rust Belt Chicago: An Anthology . Here, you'll find compelling stories from all over the city: - What one pizzeria meant to a boy growing up in Ashburn - The South Shore's beauty and pain - The best borscht in Ukranian Village - The alleys of the Gold Coast - Rogers Park's ever-shifting identity. This lyrical and subjective guide to Chicago features work by Megan Stielstra, Audrey Petty, Alex Hernandez, Sebastián Hidalgo, Dmitry Samarov, Ed Marszewski, Lily Be, Jonathan Foiles, and many more. It's a book about the day-to-day lives of people in the city and above all else, about the changes those people have witnessed, suffered, and enacted. In this idiosyncratic guidebook, Chicagoans will recognize both their streets and their stories, and readers from outside the city will get an intimate portrait of one of America's most iconic cities., Dubbed "required reading" by the Chicago Tribune, The Chicago Neighborhood Guidebook offers an intimate, idiosyncratic look at the third-largest city in the country.Part of Belt's growing series of unique city guides, The Chicago Neighborhood Guidebook explores community history and identity in a global city through essays, poems, photo essays, and art articulating the lived experience of its residents. Edited by Belt senior editor Martha Bayne, the book builds on 2017's critically acclaimed Rust Belt Chicago: An Anthology . What did one pizzeria mean to a boy growing up in Ashburn? How can South Shore encompass so much beauty and so much pain? Where's the best borscht in Ukranian Village? Who's got a handle on the ever-shifting identity of Rogers Park? All this and more in this lyrical, subjective, completely non-comprehensive guide to Chicago. With contributions from more than forty writers, including Megan Stielstra, Audrey Petty, Dmitry Samarov, Lily Be, and many others, covering forty-three of Chicago's diverse neighborhoods.A snapshot of a city at an inflection point, The Chicago Neighborhood Guidebook is grassroots history at its finest, and a must-read for anyone keen to understand what makes Chicago tick., Chicago is famously a city of neighborhoods. Seventy-seven of them, formally; more than 200 in subjective, ever-changing fact. But what does that actually mean? The Chicago Neighborhood Guidebook , the latest in Belt's series of idiosyncratic city guides (after Cleveland and Detroit), aims to explore community history and identity in a global city through essays, poems, photo essays, and art articulating the lived experience of its residents. Edited by Martha Bayne, the book builds on 2017's critically acclaimed Rust Belt Chicago: An Anthology . What did one pizzeria mean to a boy growing up in Ashburn? How can South Shore encompass so much beauty and so much pain? Where's the best borscht in Ukranian Village? Who's got a handle on the ever-shifting identity of Rogers Park? All this and more in this lyrical, subjective, completely non-comprehensive guide to Chicago. Featuring work by Megan Stielstra, Audrey Petty, Alex Hernandez, Sebasti n Hidalgo, Dmitry Samarov, Ed Marszewski, Lily Be, Jonathan Foiles, and many more.

I wasn't a huge fan of the packaging though, as it was just wrapped in a simple thin plastic sleeve with zero cushion or padding and I've had books completely destroyed because there was nothing to protect them so if possible I'd like to see the seller provide a safer package when shipping books. But thankfully mine wasn't damaged in transit!
