Summary of The “Stroll”

“A Literary Visitor Strolls in From the Airport” was about the psycho-geographical analysis of New York from the viewpoint of a visitor from London. The visitor is Will Self, a novelist, recovering drug addict, and a student of psycho-geology. Will Self is a weird character in that he walks for miles on end, usually more than a marathon length at a time, he uses this as a form of relaxation rather than using drugs. The article logs his walk from JFK airport, to 1 Centre street in Manhattan. Through his walk he talks about many different boroughs, Queens, Brooklyn, and Manhattan, and how the culture, people, and livelihoods of people living so close change from boarder to boarder.
