PLEASE NOTE: There Have Been and Will Be Many San Franciscos orders are made to order starting in February 2022, and will take approximately 2-4 weeks to ship. offset printing, screw post bindingcut in-house, open edition/all unique (each book is cut and sheared to be a different shape) I feel extremely lucky to have grown up in San Francisco — to havebeen raised on liberal politics, health food and the local sciencemuseum. Every day I moved through neighborhoods that operated indifferent languages, over beautiful hills and past colorful victorians. Butlike everyone else, I have deep and mixed feelings about the place I’mfrom. It’s loaded with memories and associations, and now, San Franciscois going through a particularly fraught and vulgar period. I feeldisconnected from the new culture of the place, but I’m still in love withthe buildings, the fog horns, the smell of the air, and the views fromvarious public steps.I used to criticize the city for being stagnant and now I lament how muchit is changing. You really can’t ever get it quite right with the placeyou’re from.This book a love letter to San Francisco — to all its good parts and goodpeople and the peculiarity that runs all the way to its center. It’s also myway of making peace with the fact that the same place will always bedifferent. You can’t step in the same river twice.
