The creator of Identità Golose in the Big Apple, between collective imagination and personal experience
The first part of the article that Paolo Marchi wrote for Guida ai ristoranti di Identità Golose 2014, published by Mondadori, and which we republish these days for all those who are about to visit this city in the United States. Here, Identità Golose will return from October 9th to the 12th for the fifth edition of Identità New York
There’s everyone’s New York, the one emerging in statistics and news, films and art, a New York that joins millions of people because everyone knows about Central Park and the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty and the Yankees, Fifth Avenue and MoMA, hot dogs eaten in the streets and jumping on taxis because there are no stops in Manhattan as in the rest of the world, because New York is all in a rush, never sleeps, and nobody has time to waste. Then there’s the New York of each one of us, and, besides, it’s not a given fact that everyone has their personal, intimate New York. It is one thing to live – and perhaps cope with the Big Apple, because it’s not possible that you haven’t watched a film by Woody Allen or those with King Kong, you cannot not know of the attack to the Twin Towers on September 11th or of John Lennon’s assassination on December 8th 1980 – and it’s something different to accumulate memories and personal postcards in the labyrinth of the mind.
