Summary

Zibby is joined by Sari Botton, the editor of Goodbye to All That, and two of the authors who contributed essays to the revised anthology, Carolita Johnson and Rosie Schaap. The four women discuss the role New York City has played in each of their lives, as well as how it has changed since the re-release was planned back in 2019. The interview, like the book, was full of nostalgia, reflections, and love for the iconic city.
