"Dans sa série phénomène, John Wilson déroule des modes d’emploi pour des problèmes du quotidien comme autant de prétextes pour un jeu de digressions et de rencontres curieuses, drôles et touchantes. Anthropologie pince-sans-rire de la New York contemporaine,
How to creuse l’ordinaire pour en faire apparaître toute la piquante absurdité. Incomparable."
