First Stop in the New World: Mexico City, the Capital of the 21st Century Tapa dura - 2008
de David Lida
A panoramic literary portrait of Mexico City a vibrant, seductive, paradoxical city nowcommanding the world's attention and showingus the way to the future of urban life.
David Lida moved to Mexico City fifteen yearsago in search of a kind of culture, energy, andspontaneity that he thought had been lost inhis native New York City. What he found was athriving, miraculous urban center comprisingcenturies of living history, even as its rapid developmentwas making it a prominent force on theworld stage. Through the eyes of an Americanwho has become an insider, First Stop in the NewWorld is a street-level panorama of contemporaryMexico City from the high arts to the sexindustry; from the dense jungle of urban politicsto the interactions of everyday commerce; fromone end of this five-hundred-square-mile city tothe other. Lida expertly captures the kaleidoscopicnature of life in a city defined by pleasureand danger, justice and lawlessness, ecstatic joyand appalling tragedy in limbo between thedeveloped and developing worlds.
While London and Paris have become morehomogenous, less captivating, and less surprisingsince the days when Dickens and Balzacwrote about them, Mexico City points to oururban future if Manhattan was, as posited byRem Koolhaas, the urban 'Rosetta Stone of thetwentieth century,' Mexico City will play thatsame role in the twenty-first. And with his personal,literary-journalistic account, David Lidawill serve as the ultimate chronicler of this excitingcity at a vital moment in its history.
