Zoe Strauss: 10 Years
by: Strauss, Zoe and Peter Barberie

Hardcover. New Haven CT, Yale University Press , 1st, 2012, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, 269 pages, illustrated throughout in color and b&w. Clean, unmarked copy with only minor wear to dust jacket. Offers a mid-career assessment of Strauss's achievement to date, and the first full account of her celebrated ten-year project, beginning in 2001, to exhibit her photographs under an elevated section of Interstate 95 in Philadelphia. Strauss's troubling and sometimes touching images focus primarily on American working-class experience, to convey what she calls "an epic narrative that reflects the beauty and struggle of everyday life." Generously illustrated, this book includes nearly 200 photographs--135 of them published here for the first time.
