While I'll admit to a bias, the author is a friend, the grace and charm of this little slip of a book remain unassailable. The art work is the main draw here. Each section reveals a different manner in which the world buffets and assails us and the art work creates imagery of emotional motion in response. The prose is clean and minimal allowing the images to speak. They act as modest guideposts. The images reveal the gaps between people, the gaps between emotions. The interior life of those portrayed take on a physical existance--laid bare before us. Give this book a few moments and it will move you.
