Condition: Hardcover, New in dust jacket. New York: Knopf:, 2025. Hardcover, New in dust jacket, 420 pp. Cover artwork by: Dorthea Lange We love Karen Russell. I mean, we really like her writing a great deal. Though she has a number of short story collections, this is only her second novel. We love it and we haven't even read it… yet. "The Antidote opens on Black Sunday, as a historic dust storm ravages the fictional town of Uz, Nebraska. But Uz is already collapsing - not just under the weight of the Great Depression and the dust bowl drought but beneath its own violent histories. The Antidote follows a 'Prairie Witch,' whose body serves as a bank vault for peoples' memories and secrets; a Polish wheat farmer who learns how quickly a hoarded blessing can become a curse; his orphan niece, a basketball star and witch's apprentice in furious flight from her grief; a voluble scarecrow; and a New Deal photographer whose time-traveling camera threatens to reveal both the town's secrets and its fate.". Dorthea Lange (illustrator).

Illustrated with numerous photographs from Farm Security Photographers such as Walker Evans, Ben Shahn, Dorothea Lange, Russell Lee, Marion Post, Arthur Rothstein and many o…thers.

DJ has shelf-wear, rubbing present to the DJ especially around the extremities (chips and missing pieces present to the extremities of the DJ). No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks, binding tight and solid, boards lightly rubbed and worn. In the small town, where everybody knows everybody's first name where everybody knows everybody's business, Sherwood Anderson sees the foundation and the test stone of democracy. The Farm Security Agency is well known for the influence of their photography program, 1935-1944. Photographers and writers were hired to report and document the plight of poor farmers. The Information Division of the FSA was responsible for providing educational materials and press information to the public. Many of the most famous Depression-era photographers were fostered by the FSA project. Walker Evans, Dorothea Lange, and Gordon Parks were three of the most famous FSA alumni. This portrait of small town America is more nostalgic than investigative and features photographs by Ben Shahn, Arthur Rothstein, Walker Evans, Marion Post, Russell Lee, John Vachon and Dorothea Lange. E-68; 4to 11" - 13" tall.
