My New York: City Poems

Born in Brooklyn in the 1930s and now living in Manhattan, Betty Farber uses warmth and humor in writing poems that are love letters to New York City. Whether about a "Butterfly in the City," or "Everyday Bravery," or "Bagels and Romance," these poems voice a personal point-of-view of life in New York.
