“HOT WEATHER OPENS the skull of a city, exposing its white brain, and its heart of nerves, which sizzle like the wires inside a lightbulb. And there exudes a sour extra-human smell that makes the very stone seem flesh-alive, webbed and pulsing.” ―Truman Capote, "Summer Crossing"

AND IN PITTSBURGH, you get a lot of amazing Art alongside the inevitable sizzling, exuding and pulsing.
