That book is "On Beauty," by Zadie Smith. (I confess the picture was actually taken at home in Missouri in May -- but it does embody summer bliss for me.)

I didn't think the picture looked like New York! As a mother it always fills my heart with joy when my kids come home from their very busy lives and can relax enough to put their feet up! Your mom must have loved having you home, and I bet she even kept your cup filled to the brim.
