Description
What the Living Carry is a unique and thought-provoking collection that brings together photographs, handwritten letters, and a hand-drawn map to tell a story of a small town in the American South.
The book presents a fragmented narrative of a foreboding place, where scenes point to a mysterious history and people whose familial connections remain unknown. Interspersed with these images are four letters responding to a request for DNA analysis, written by someone claiming to be from the Center for Epigenetics and Wellness of the Spirit.
Through its visual record, What the Living Carry offers a set of clues to unravel the enigma behind this strange world. The book's use of both autobiographical and imagined elements creates a sense of elusiveness, leaving the reader to piece together the mystery for themselves.
