Description

The twelfth publication in the Nazraeli Press One Picture Book series. From the publisher: "'Following acts of violence / we are offered, if we wish, the stillness of alder leaves / moving in concert with an easterly wind / in the morning.' -- from After Great Fear by Carolyn Dunn. This thoughtful and moving addition to our One Picture Book series opens with a tranquil view of trees in a forest, transformed in a short sequence of pictures to falling lumber. Robert Adams has produced a set of five images that -- with beautiful simplicity -- tell their own devastating story. Adams's sister, Carolyn Dunn, wrote the three haunting poems that accompany his work, and was recently awarded a William Bronk Foundation prize for poetry."
