Why read it?
1 author picked Wall and Piece as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

You can leaf through and enjoy the pictures, but I highly recommend that you invest the time to read the witty and through-provoking text accompanying them. I am not saying that a comparison to Tolstoy immediately came to mind. All I am saying is that I continued to think about the book days and weeks after reading it.
From Elen's list on The best books about graffiti that will make you want to pick up a spray paint can.
