Synopsis
A meditation on the nature of photography itself, The Book of Shadows is a collection of 88 anonymous photographs spanning the twentieth century, all of which share a common "mistake"--the photographer's shadow falling into the image. Selected by gallerist Jeffrey Fraenkel from his personal collection of more than 2000, these images represent, in Fraenkel's words, "the most tenacious, peculiar, and downright sublime of the crop." The shadows frequently convey striking aspects of their maker's personalities, and tell us more than might be expected about the person behind the camera. But as Fraenkel writes in the book's introduction, "the shadow's most striking feature is that it tips us off and confirms the photographer was there, a reality not generally evident in photographs. We take for granted photographs were made by someone, a person with a reason for making the picture, but that observer--who by extension is also us--is rarely acknowledged so overtly in the pictures themselves." This book itself is a work of art. Bound between suede covers, and exquisitely printed by the master craftsmen at Trifolio in Verona, Italy, The Book of Shadows is a reminder, even in a digital age, that the power and mystery of photographic depiction still evades any attempt to describe it., Sarah the Sensible, that's what Sarah's year 12 jersey said. Sarah's studying law, living at Galston College on a scholarship, and happy to have found Wil, the ideal boyfriend. So why is Sarah dreaming about the boy she met in the laundry? Paige Miss Popular, Paige's jersey said. She and Tallulah have been best friends forever. And thanks to Tallulah, they're the only freshmen to have been invited to the hottest party on campus. So why is Paige now a patient in a psychiatric ward? What happened to Paige between then and now that she's pretending she can't remember? The truth will illuminate the darkness - but what if Sarah and Paige don't want to hear it?

- *****- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseAbsolutely EXCEPTIONAL packing from this seller! Usually sellers drop a big paperback book into a plastic mailer to slip and slide on its journey through the mail. This seller secured the book to cardboard, then secured the outer mailer to that stiffness, so there was NO danger of movement (corners being bumped, book bent, etc.). Fantastic price on obscure Sunset book (no others listed on eBay except one in a big expensive lot). Exactly as pictured. Fast shipping. VERY happy! Thank you.
