A New York Review Books Original There's a certain street--via Saterna--in the middle of Milan that just doesn't show up on maps of the city. Orfi, a wildly successful young singer, lives there, and it's there that one night he sees his gorgeous girlfriend Eura disappear, "like a spirit," through a little door in the high wall that surrounds a mysterious mansion across the way. Where has Eura gone? Orfi will have to venture with his guitar across the borders of life and death to find out. Featuring the Ashen Princess, the Line Inspector, trainloads of Devils, Trudy, Valentina, and the Talking Jacket, "Poem Strip"--a pathbreaking graphic novel from the 1960s--is a dark and alluring investigation into mysteries of love, lust, sex, and death by Dino Buzzati, a master of the Italian avant-garde.

When wandering the streets and avenues of the Big Apple, it is not unusual to stumble upon a film crew, hard at work on the next big-screen blockbuster or the latest episode of Friends. The city location gives a production grit and glamour, the end result is that the city's image is spread throughout the world, making it one of the most familiar-looking places in the world. (New York's film and television industries spend in excess of $2.5 billion per year, playing an integral part in the city's economy.) New York City is possibly most famous for its skyscrapers, which provide a backdrop to the neuroses of Jerry Seinfeld and the drama of NYPD Blue. At 1,350 feet, the World Trade Centre takes the lead.Whether or not this is your first visit to the city, the AA's Spiral Guide makes for a good travelling companion. Though small enough to fit into your rucksack pocket, it squeezes in 200 fact-filled pages, including glossy fold-out maps, a 28 page "magazine", chapters on Midtown Manhattan, the Empire State Building and Central Park and a useful section on practicalities, such as currency and foreign exchange, consulate contact info and tips on travelling with a disability. --Daren King

When it comes to making albums of epic proportions, few rival this magnificent production that a trip the band took to New York City inspired in 1973. The underlying story is of a street kid named Rael who, thanks in part to the realities of big city life, undergoes a weird and mystical transformation. Containing extended instrumental sections showcasing the extraordinary talents of Tony Banks, Steve Hackett, and Phil Collins, as well as the expressive vocals and often disturbing lyrics of Peter Gabriel, this is the album that located Genesis truly on the map. --Paul Clark

The main premise of Midnight Club Street Racing is that you and your pals take to the streets each night to race hot rods around town. Along the way, you will terrorise those pedestrians who are crazy enough to be outdoors at night and generally crash into anything that's vertical. Of course, it goes without saying that you will then spend most of daytime hours pounding out the dents from the previous night's misadventures.Midnight Club Street Racing plays like a combination of the high-res street shenanigans of the Dreamcast's Tokyo Extreme Racing and the mission-based mayhem of the PS One's Driver. You've got two fantastic urban vistas to roam around--New York and London--and a jacked-up little runabout in which to do it. The game isn't just about racing, it's about racing from point to point or playing follow the leader.Graphically appealing (if more than a little flat, but that doesn't detract) and speedy, this may not tax the PlayStation2 hardware, but it may tax your skills as a gamer if you don't keep up.Maps to the city are available whenever you need them, so it's pretty difficult to get lost. It's advisable to try, however, as there are tons of mini-routes to traverse. No route is sacrosanct, since you can bash through plate glass windows, barrel through underground parking structures, meander across parks and even pogo from roof to roof. In this way, the game has a bit of that good 'ole Driver feel, though the night skies and sombre tone of the city dispel some of this the further in you play.Midnight Club Street Racing is a great game and yet another reason for new PlayStation2 owners to smile. While not terribly groundbreaking, this is one game that's loads of fun to play. --Todd Mowatt
