Snapshots: Essay and Image

Join us at Village Well Books & Coffee for a panel celebrating the release of Snapshots, a brand new anthology with a diverse array of essays and photography.

Editor Dinah Lenney moderates a conversation and reading with authors featured in the collection including Aimee Liu (Glorious Boy), Tod Goldberg (Gangsterland), Aimee Bender (The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake), and Ivy Pochoda (Sing Her Down).

About the book:

If pictures are worth a thousand words, what kinds of words might they inspire? What stories would they tell and would they be joyful or sad, elegant or savage?

Snapshots features 36 such meditations from a diverse group of writers, each of whom draws on a photograph from their personal archive to inspire a short essay.

Intimate and powerful, these reflections exhibit a range of sensibilities and experiences, offering unique insight into the lives and interests of both established and emerging authors. Expressing a dynamic array of styles, relationships, landscapes, and preoccupations, Snapshots is an album for our life and times.
