paperback. Condition: Near Fine. DETAILS: small PAPERBACK, fresh attractive copy, near fine and appears unused. FAUSTO CABRERA, C. / SOTH, ALEC. The parameters of our cage. London: MACK, 2020, 126pp., . LACKING THE TWO POSTCARDS - Series: Discourse, 003 "In January 2020, Alec Soth received a letter from Chris Fausto Cabrera, an inmate of the Minnesota Correctional Facility in Rush City, in which he asked the photographer to engage in a dialogue. This sparked an expansive and insightful correspondence over the following nine months which, set against the backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic, Black Lives Matter Movement and growing unrest, reaches to the heart of contemporary America. In amongst their exchanges of personal histories and shared influences - from Ralph Ellison's The Invisible Man and André 3000, to Robert Frank's The Americans and Rilke's 'Letters to a Young Poet' - developed a searing investigation of the redemptive power of art and the imagination, justice and accountability, life inside America's prisons, and the astonishing capacity of empathy and curiosity to bring two people together.".

Condition: Very Good. Hardcover, 144 pages. Men wearing suits jousting with sailfish. Head-on bridge collision. Men with linoleum. Kitchen murder-suicide. Firemen playing donkey baseball. Ideal woman in apron. Through more than 10,000 images, Irwin Denison Norling, the unofficial town photographer for Bloomington, Minnesota, captured the strange juxtapositions, incongruities, and dark corners of the developing suburban America of the 1950s and '60s. A competitive amateur glued to his police radio, Norling spent years examining the light and darkness, tragedies and desolation, rituals of community and celebration through the lens of his camera, deftly capturing the uneasy dichotomy between the familiar and subversive?the familiarly subversive. "That was the way it was. And the way it was, that's what I was after."In 2002 veteran journalist Brad Zellar unearthed Norling's negatives from the archive of the Bloomington Historical Society. Compelled by the work of this man who had all but drifted into obscurity, Zellar collects the best of these images in Suburban World, a fascinating window into the uneasy contradictions in Norling's unforgettable and unselfconscious, funny and gritty, not-too-distant past.

Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. As new condition purple boards with silver spine lettering contained in a fine condition non price-clipped color illustrated dust jacket. Includes List of Other Books by Marilynne Robinson and Author Dedication. "Marilynne Robinson's mythical world of Gilead, Iowa - the setting of her novels Gilead, Home, Lila, and now Jack - and its beloved characters have illuminated and interrogated the complexities of American history, the power of our emotions, and the wonders of a sacred world. In Jack, Robinson tells the story of John Ames Boughton, the prodigal son of Gilead's Presbyterian minister, and his romance with Della Miles, a high school teacher who is also the child of a minister. Their deeply felt, tormented, star-crossed interracial romance resonates with all the paradoxes of American life, then and now. Robinson's Gilead novels, which have won a Pulitzer Prize and two National Book Critics Circle Awards, are a vital contribution to contemporary American literature and a revelation of our national character and our humanity." - from the inner front jacket flap. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: The author is the winner of Gilead, winner of the 2005 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction and the National Book Critics Circle Award; Home (2008), winner of the Orange Prize and the Los Angeles Times Book Prize; and Lila (2014), winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award.

Hardcover. Pearl grey cloth/boards. blind-stamp lettering; two mounted color images. 192 pp. full of mostly color images. Signed by the artist. With essays by Alec Soth and Colm Toibin. "A conceptual artist pushing the boundaries of art in the twenty-first century, Peter Liversidge's diverse oeuvre has a singular starting point, type-written proposals through which he explores almost every medium: drawing, performance, installation, photography, printmaking, painting, sculpture, interventions, and artist's books. This book, for the first time, brings together Liversidge's extraordinary body of work investigating the passing of time and memory through instant photography. Using a hand-held camera, Liversidge takes two imagesthe initial, carefully selected image guides the composition of the second image, which is taken moments after the first is developed and which attempts to replicate what was captured at the exact point of the original exposure. Sometimes profound, sometimes subtle, inevitable differences between the pair become evident. These differences are key to the works, not only in their reading, but also through their record of the passing of timea quality not present in the individual images on their own." - from the Sean Kelly Gallery web site.
