"Wendy Goodman has been New York magazine's interior design editor for 20 years, and to say she is an expert in interiors is an understatement. Her truest gift is uncovering spaces like no other. Apartment Therapy had the pleasure of touring Wendy's own home in a house tour, and you can see that she has a passion for her own interiors, as well. In May I Come in? she visits more than 75 homes―all captured in full color, immersive photographs―of some of the most unique homes, possibly ever. if you are interested in statement-making spaces, you'll find inspiration on nearly every page." -- Apartment Therapy

Reviewed in the United States on 22 December 2018Verified Purchase
I am just a little bit addicted to this book. The philosophy of the book purports to be "Great interior design is a byproduct of one's passions," but actually, it is a lot "Quirky rich old people who don't give a s**t". Which makes it simply richly dazzling, chaotic, delicious.

I bought this book because i am a fan of Wendy Goodman and I am giving to all my friends because this book goes above and beyond all expectations. It is a wonderfully eclectic collection of amazing abodes with stunning pictures AND the wittiness of the stories makes it a page turner. What a welcome addition to the library.

A delicious treat from the wonderful, lush, endlessly curious eye of Wendy Gooodman (who seems effortlessly to know EVERYBODY chic who walks the earth). There’s so much inspiration here for the amateur, for the pro - for anyone with walls and a roof and a fantasy. A total pleasure to pour over!
