Underwhelming book

Written on the City seemed like an exciting and interesting book on the cover. However, after delving into the imagery and context, I found nothing deep, moving, or even "just ok" with this print. The pieces are selected from cities around the world, but I could have culled the same result by walking around Downtown Dallas with a smartphone. While it does have some interesting messages, there's not a lot here. The humor is sophomoric at best. No insight, nothing revealing. Don't buy this. I am disappointed.
