An anthology based on published essays in The New York Times. The action takes place in New York City, a city where millions of people meet, fall in love, argue, and forgive each other every day. Each episode reveals the story of a specific New Yorker who is either trying to find love in the big city or is already in a serious and often complicated relationship. As they solve their problems and go through new experiences, the characters invariably explore love in the modern world.
