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.
