Summary: One Big Self
Comment: On March 2, 2004, I had the pleasure of meeting Mrs. Luster. I bought the book so she could sign it. Seeing her explain this book to a Louisiana University was amazing. These photographs are breath taking, and I was lucky enough to participate in a demo on how she prints her photographs. Not everyone gets this opportunity, but I think everyone should take a close look at One Big Self: Prisoners of Louisiana.
Rating: 5
Summary: not just a good book, but a moral statement...
Comment: ...about autonomy and (against) our incarceration-drunk nation. The long poem, or sets of poems, is, or are, superb (and closely related to Wright's last book-length poem, Deepstep Come Shining); the prisoners themselves decided how they wished to appear for their photographs, and had an exceptional amount of control over the visual results, making the visual part of the book a moving claim on their behalf, rather than (as often in "documentary" photography) just a descriptive claim "about" them. This is a monument and a triumph.
