Publisher Description: "We are living through a very grim time," writes Barry Sheinkopf, "with death lurking invisibly all around us, livelihoods shaken or destroyed, emotions running wild in all directions, governments struggling with varying degrees of integrity and success to contain the mayhem, and our very nature as social creatures held in cautious check. We're calling the microscopic organism that has attacked us Coronavirus and the disease it causes Covid-19, but it's a plague plain and simple: novel, horrifying, highly contagious, perhaps recurring. Our future has become uncertain, a mystery. That's why I have subtitled this collection Images and Words in a Time of Plague. I've been using cameras for a long time, living with the astonishment of the world around me and trying to capture, not just the facts of what I see, but that very astonishment. |
