Title: Alone Together : Life on an Island in Maine by David Graham, Nicols Fox ISBN: 0-9666776-7-6 Publisher: Pond Press Pub. Date: 01 September, 2002 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $17.95 |
Average Customer Rating: 3.5 (4 reviews)
Rating: 5
Summary: Evocative and Poignant
Comment: The photographs are terrific, and the narrative does a beautiful job of connecting them. It's a photography book, after all, not just a story with pictures. Anyone who has ever spent any time on a coastal island in Maine will appreciate the sensitivity and beauty of the photographs, and I found the story of the Kellams very meaningful. The story of their life should cause us all to reconsider our priorities.

Summary: Alone Together
Comment: I was extremely disappointed in this book. I read a review for it in my local paper and was so intrigued I pre-ordered it at least a month before it became available. I checked my mailbox each day and when it finally arrived I read it and looked at the pictures for maybe 30 minutes. I'm not sure how I missed this, but I was expecting a life story, not a breif narrative with photos. The photos were lovely, but as the narrative, simply left more questions than were answered. What a great book this could have been!
Rating: 5
Summary: Author's explanation
Comment: Naturally, being the author of the text of this book, and a fan of Graham's photography, I give it five stars--but also because the review format insists that I rate it.(Another example of the domination of the machine. Otherwise, I would have left the rating blank.)
To avoid any confusion, it should be noted that the photographs by David Graham were taken before the contents of the house were removed and that the book is, in fact, a catalogue for his current exhibition in Philadelphia.
Graham used my essay on the Kellams, which also appears in my book Against the Machine, as text, arranging his photographs in the sequence I speak of in the essay.
There are only a few copies left.
