| Abstract: | With this haunting new collection of photographs, Joan Myers continues the decades-long journey she began in Where the Buffalo Roamed (with Lucy Lippard), documenting the changing landscape and culture of the American West. The images in this new collection are more personal, more elegiac -- and all black-and-white. They bear witness to the fracturing of the American Dream, the demise of cowboy culture, and the shrinking of small towns, ranches, and farms throughout western rural America. The themes she examines are reflected in The Devil's Highway, a powerfully evocative short story by Pulitzer finalist William deBuys, first published in 1992 in Story magazine and reproduced here for the first time. Myers and deBuys previously collaborated on Salt Dreams: Land and Water in Low-Down California, which inspired the highly acclaimed film, The Colorado. Myers has spent much of her time roaming the American West, but has also worked in India, the Canary Islands, Antarctica, Java, Sicily, Sardinia, Hawaii, and more. Her extensive photo archive is now housed at the Briscoe Center for American History on the University of Texas at Austin campus |
| Beschreibung: | Constructed in 1926, US Route 191, formerly known as Route 666 and nicknamed 'The Devil's Highway,' once ran from Utah to the Mexico border. Dozens of black-and-white images capture its desert scenery and derelict buildings. There are artifacts of the road, including abandoned cars, billboards, and statues. There are images of old-fashioned diners and Native American memorabilia. One memorable Texas composition blends nature with culture, with cacti in the foreground, and main street facades behind. ... In this repeat collaboration, "the journey is more personal and more elegiac." And in the accompanying story "Devil's Highway," a morality tale first published in 1992, George Cross, a government land manager, picks up two hitchhikers whom he soon realizes are illegal Mexican immigrants. Duty wrestles with empathy as he gets mired in the men's lives. -- From forewordreviews.com |
