August 2016 Bookclub

Dear Bookclub,
Sally Mann's "Hold Still" has much to share but I have yet to find any stillness. Riddled with memories and philosophies that both disquiet and harmonize any attempt to relate, Mann's memoir will resonate. I adore it at 45 pages deep. Her description of the effects of photographs on memory struck like lightning as I recalled her 2015 interview with Terry Gross:

Next Wednesday: Terry's 12:30.....

“I like to make people a little uncomfortable. It encourages them to examine who they are and why they think the way they do.” – Sally Mann


View, read and think,
