SYDNEY, Australia — A man stands huddled under awnings on the corner
of George and Market streets, his tie thrown over his shoulder after running
through a thunderstorm. From the Dream/Life series, 1998.
Book of the Week: Sleeping by the Mississippi
by Alec Soth
Evolving from a series of road trips along the Mississippi River, Alec Soth's Sleeping by the Mississippi captures America's
iconic yet often neglected "third coast." Sensuous in detail and raw in subject, the book elicits a
mood of loneliness, longing, and reverie.
