It was to this city that Raia, a writer, pursued inspiration after being unable to write a single sentence for a long time. Raia made every corner of New York his “office”. Walking through Brooklyn to Queens, he looked for a piece of story in every inch of it, in the people who passed him, in the conversations he overheard, in the gazes that met his eyes for a second or two...
