Couples : Speaking from the Heart
Editorial Reviews Book Description From the author of Fathers and Daughters and Mothers and Sons comes this moving tribute to love. In Couples, photographer Mariana Cook presents a stunning collection of black and white images and intimate texts from 60 different couples—young, old, rich, poor, gay, straight, famous, unknown—offering us a rare glimpse into the diverse meanings of that unique bond. These partners speak in their own words, and yet it is in the glance of the eye, the subtle gesture that the unspoken emotions are expressed in these deceptively simple and honest portraits. In both text and image, Couples is a powerful and moving celebration of not only love, but life, and all of the beauty and magic that is shared by the union of two people. About the Author Mariana Cook was born in New York City, where she still resides. A protegee of Ansel Adams, Cook has photographed dozens of today's most admired and controversial writers, artists, and public figures--many of whom she has paired with their daughters for this volume. Paul Ricoeur is among the most distinguished philosophers of our time. A Professor Emeritus at Chicago and Paris universities, he lives in Paris.
