"Over the course of two years, a twenty-something punk rocker eats a cheese slice from every pizzeria in New York City, gets sober, falls in love, and starts a blog that captures headlines around the world--he is the Slice Harvester, and this is his story. Since its arrival on US shores in 1905, pizza has risen from an obscure ethnic food to an iconic symbol of American culture. It has visited us in our dorm rooms and apartments, sometimes before we'd even unpacked or painted. It has nourished us during our jobs, consoled us during break-ups, and celebrated our triumphs right alongside us. In August 2009, Colin Hagendorf set out to review every regular slice of pizza in Manhattan, and his blog, Slice Harvester, was born. Two years and nearly 400 slices later, he'd been featured in The Wall Street Journal, the Daily News (New York), and on radio shows all over the country. Suddenly, this self-proclaimed punk who was barely making a living doing burrito delivery and selling handmade zines had a following. But at the same time Colin was stepping up his game for the masses (grabbing slices with Phoebe Cates and her teenage daughter, reviewing kosher pizza so you don't have to), his personal life was falling apart. A problem drinker and chronic bad boyfriend, he started out using the blog as a way to escape--the hangovers, the midnight arguments, the hangovers again--until finally realizing that by taking steps to reach a goal day by day, he'd actually put himself in a place to finally take control of his life for good"--

Excerpt from New York in Slices: By an Experienced Carver, Being the Original Slices Published in the N. Y. Tribune; Revised, Enlarged, and Corrected A great city is the highest results of human civilization. Here the Soul, that most perfect and godlike of all created things, the essence and spirit of the visible world, has put forth all its most wonderful energies - energies developed to their utmost power, and excited to their highest slate of activity by constant cont with countless other souls, each emulating, impelling, stimulating, rivalling, o doing the others. What a world of thought and wisdom and imagination and benevolence and friendship and love ought we not to expect from this mighty concentration of so many immortalities, so many heavenly faculties! The very atmosphere should be purified and brightened by the incessant flashing of the electricity of intellect, and a boundless horizon of sympathies and affections, rising from all these noble hearts, should spread above the dwelling-place of so many glorious spirits, reminding them always of their heavenly origin, and keeping ever in view their lofty destiny on earth - to sanctify this material life and this all beautiful world to God and to each other. Yes - man in isolation, or thinly gathered in feeble neighborhoods and scattered villages, is powerless to accomplish great works, or to fulfil the mission of his race. It is only in a large city, where some hundreds of thousands combine their various powers, that the human mind can efficiently stamp itself on every thing by which it is surrounded - can transmute the insensible earth to a fit temple and dwelling-place for immortal spirits. What do we see! Reluctantly we turn our gaze from the broad Bay, in whose musical undulations sleeps the sweet spirit of Peace and Beauty, fanned by the sphere-wandering winds. The silken rustle of the leaves overhead, hushing the pale-blue chamelion in his noontide dream of air, sheds a slumberous shower upon us. But we are not here for slumber. Let us on through this broad gravelled walk, arched by shady old trees, and hasten to emerge into the street, where our dream will be ion enough broken by the ceaseless noises that roll in sea-like waves down from the clamorous city. What a grand avenue, mounting the subdued hill that like a gigantic camel patiently stoops to bear its huge burden! Look, how beautiful the prospect! The eye, sinking beneath this pressure of imposing forms, loses itself in the far-reaching sweep of the street, terminated by a confused cloud of moving wheels, fronts of houses, and thickened air, pierced here and there with a tall spire or swelling dome. Here at our very feet springs up into the air a lofty steeple, stately as a palm and graceful as an exhalation. Within this Gothic porch - but of that anon. Look away to the right, down this immense granite artery, whence pours the turbid flood of trade and money, gain and traffic. Hark! a doll, sullen growl comes up from its lowest depths, as of the groans of the victims hourly choked and thrust down beneath the wave, mingled with the low chuckle and the hollow laugh of the victors - themselves, it may be, doomed to be vanquished in the next moment, and sent to join their victims on "the night's Plutonian shore," where limp the ghosts of lame ducks which no man can number. But all this is underground, or hidden behind the massive gray columns. To our eye nothing appears but a panorama of palaces, variegated with eager groups of men apparently engaged in the discussion of lofty themes, upon which hang most momentous issues. And so they do - the "settlement" of weekly balances and the "issues" of country banks. 'Tis a magnificent avenue of architectural beauty - the Acropolis of this modern Athens - only all these splendid temples are erected to one divinity, all these crowds of devotees worship the same god, - Mammon.
