New York holds a special place in America's national mythology

as both the gateway to the USA and as a diverse, vibrant cultural

center distinct from the rest of the nation. From the international

atmosphere of the Dutch colony New Amsterdam, through the expansion

of the city in the nineteenth century, to its unique appeal to

artists and writers in the twentieth, New York has given its

writers a unique perspective on American culture. This Companion

explores the range of writing and performance in the city,

celebrating Herman Melville, Walt Whitman, Edith Wharton, Eugene

O'Neill, and Allen Ginsberg among a host of authors who have

contributed to the city's rich literary and cultural history.
