Hell's Kitchen Trash is a unique book that takes a detailed look at the
garbage of this colorful, historic West Side neighborhood--from tiny to
massive, appealing to disgusting, and seemingly ordinary to eerily
bizarre. The photos in this book are snapshots of Hell's Kitchen life as
seen through its refuse. Author Richard Panchyk presents a photographic
history of the discards of the area's residents, commuters, and
tourists, all of whom coexist and contribute to the diverse landscape of
urban refuse, the many tons of trash generated every single day. From
forlorn gloves to rejected recliners, and dumped dressers to fallen
pizza, Hell's Kitchen Trash presents a gritty look at the wide variety
of objects we leave behind, whether intentionally or by accident.
