About the Book
A lively new edition of the witty, colorful hit book that unlocks the insider secrets of Pasadena and environs.Book Synopsis
From Sierra Madre and Altadena to South Pasadena and Old Town, the long-awaited third edition of Hometown Pasadena is a new kind of city book that provides a fresh look at everything this world-class small city has to offer, created by an all-star team of longtime locals who dig deep to reflect the place they find so special. Featuring lots of interviews and features, it inspires readers to both explore the famous destinations (the Huntington, the Norton Simon, Caltech, the Rose Bowl) and the lesser-known joys (the architectural walks, the hidden gardens, the off-the-beaten-path cafes and shops).Review Quotes
"The latest edition, which features interviews with notable people including late L.A. Times food critic Jonathan Gold, comedian Maria Bamford, and musician Phoebe Bridgers, as well as essays by others... is a love song to Pasadena and its people. Pasadenans are hardcore fans of their hometown."
--Los Angelesmagazine "A lavish coffee-table book filled with lush imagery and stylish essays by some of the city's most prominent writers.... packed with insights into what makes Pasadena great, while also encompassing Altadena, South Pasadena and La Cañada Flintridge as the book unlocks the insider secrets of the San Gabriel Valley."
--Pasadena Weekly "When I went to the contributors' launch party at Prospect Park Books' Lincoln Avenue HQ the other day -- yes, I have an essay in it, the first sentence of which goes, 'There's nothing more echt Pasadena than two scientists arguing in an art gallery' -- I ignored all my pals and just sat down and read with amazement how this book gets Pasadena as a whole better than anything ever has."
--Larry Wilson, Pasadena Star-News
