28 reviews“The End of the Golden Gate’s 25 essays are filled with emotional, sincere thoughts on San Francisco. The collection’s depictions of the city and its people often are beautiful, and its anecdotes illuminating.” - SF Weekly
Each of the writers in this timely anthology will take on the Bay Area - dweller's eternal conflict: Should I stay or should I go? They chronicle the impact of the tech-industry invasion and the evolution, gentrification, and radical cost of living that have transformed San Francisco's most beloved neighbourhoods. They share stories of the lasting imprint of the 1960s counterculture movement, as well as the fight to preserve the art, music, and other creative movements that make this forever the city of love.
The End Of The Golden Gate is a penetrating journey through San Francisco that will illuminate both what makes it so captivating and how it has changed vastly over the last few decades.
"The End of the Golden Gate brings some of the area’s most notable voices together to offer an insider’s account of why we go (but often stay) in a city that is beauty incarnate but constantly in search of itself... A necessary, lively rebuttal to any argument suggesting San Francisco is headed six feet below, while also revealing the many painful, often profound costs that come with being - and remaining - a resident of San Francisco." - San Francisco Chronicle/Datebook
