Roma's photographs pay homage to this diverse, expansive, and truly unique place, taking us through streets and passages, abandoned lots and backyards--the Brooklyn that is at turns amusing, forlorn, and surreal. "Beautiful Brooklyn, where--on the evidence of Thomas Roma's pictures--the light comes down wih such sweet sympahty that asphalt shingles and cyclone fences are shown to be as fine as marble, and where the weed in vacant lots make us think of Eden." -- John Szarkowski

"[Thomas Roma] walks, stalks his hometown...we are given what he 'found,' the soul of a place as it is, and as it gets lived daily." --Robert Coles, from the introduction.
