Delicately rhapsodic meditations on light, photography, and perception.
"The whole / world is synonyms," says Sarah O'Brien in a debut collection that addresses all things photography--from its history to the necessity of light and white space, and from the thrills of its technology to the way we talk about and caption photographs, and the ways they, in turn, capture and change the world. In Catch Light, each poem becomes a miniature snapshot that locates the reality in illusion, tests the perception of imagination, and throws open the windows of visual narrative.Author Biography
