Few personal details are exchanged and neither woman has any way of knowing that they have produced one of the most iconic images of the Great Depression. In present day, Walker Dodge, a professor of cultural history, stumbles upon a family secret embedded in the now-famous picture. In luminous prose, Silver creates an extraordinary tale from a brief event in history and its repercussions throughout the decades that follow--a reminder that a great photograph captures the essence of a moment yet only scratches the surface of a life.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMarisa Silver\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of the novels \u003ci\u003eThe God of War \u003c\/i\u003e(a \u003ci\u003eLos Angeles Times\u003c\/i\u003e Book Prize finalist), \u003ci\u003eNo Direction Home\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eLittle Nothing\u003c\/i\u003e; and two story collections, \u003ci\u003eAlone With You\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eBabe in Paradise \u003c\/i\u003e(a \u003ci\u003eNew York Times \u003c\/i\u003eNotable Book and \u003ci\u003eLos Angeles Times\u003c\/i\u003e Best Book of the Year).
