I was awed when I first received this book for review. I usually begin by actually reading words, but not so with this book. I was immediately drawn to the countless photos that awaited me. Author, David Nieves, has produced a work in honor of, Nat Fein, a photographer working in New York City around 1940-1980. Mr. Fein took photos that truly captured the soul of the event, person or animal that he was gazing upon. It is truly amazing to see the results he achieved. You will find many photos of famous people, such as Jackie Kennedy, and Babe Ruth just before he left this world. A remarkable photo that you will not soon forget. He also took outstanding photos of animals that seemed to express their sorrow or joy, and events that many have only read about. This is a great book, one that you will treasure for years to come and pass along to other family members. I highly recommend it.
I already read this a while ago but I'm re-reading now after liking "The Wonder Spot" so much.
It's another installment in the lives of Lucia and Mapp and the circle of acquaintances in Tilling, with more of the social manipulations that are the essence of these stories. You could read any of the 6 books that have been grouped into a series called "Make Way for Lucia" as stand-alones, but I have enjoyed reading them in order. I like these E. F. Benson stories as much as I like P. G. Wodehouse Blandings stories, and perhaps even a little more. It is amazing how these can be stories about upper middle class British folks set in the 1920s to 1930s, and still feel like they are current tales. It is amazing how events and behaviors can be so ridiculous and outrageous, yet told so well that they are believable. I'm reading the final book, "Trouble for Lucia" now, but with confidence I can heartily recommend all of them.
