Roz Chast joins Leonard on Leonard Lopate at Large for a discussion on the book and what went into creating her iconic visual style.
Beloved New Yorker cartoonist and New York Times bestselling author Roz Chast has always been intensely alive to the glorious spectacle that is Manhattan—the daily clash of sidewalk racers and dawdlers, the fascinating range of dress codes and the pricelessly nutty outbursts of souls from all walks of life.
Told through her singularly zany, laugh-out-loud cartoons, Roz’s latest book “Going Into Town: A Love Letter to New York” is part New York stories, part personal and practical guide to walking, talking, renting and venting.

Yay! Found you. You are sorely missed by long-time WNYC listeners. And Roz Chast! The only exhibit at which I heard people laughing out loud — loudly! That was at the Museum of the City of New York. She’s got a special place in my heart after I saw her cartoon on having a crazed dog in the house.
Jennifer, thank you we will pass this along to Leonard!
