Editorial Reviews Amazon.com A dramatic collection of photographs depicting the services of black churches in Brooklyn, Come Sunday illustrates the power of faith in a community riddled by unemployment, poverty, and crime. Focusing on the shine of a tooth, the thickness of a braid, the resolved tension of a hand clutching a bible, Soma uses subtle textures to mirror the diversity and complexities of the everyday humanness of his subjects. Within the walls of these sanctuaries, members of the congregation chat, crack smiles, doze, weep, cheer, and, of course, pray, all the while exhibiting extraordinary faith that, for many, lifts them above life's seemingly impossible burdens. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. New York Times Book Review, Alexandra Hall If one sensibility pervades the praying faces of Mr. Roma's subjects, it is absolute trust--perhaps the most dramatic evidence of faith available. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
