Sally Mann
A revealing and beautifully written memoir and family history from acclaimed photographer Sally Mann.
In this groundbreaking audiobook, a unique interplay of narrative and image, Mann's preoccupation with family, race, mortality, and the storied landscape of the American South are revealed as almost genetically predetermined, written into her DNA by the family history that precedes her.
Sorting through boxes of family papers and yellowed photographs she finds more than she bargained for: "deceit and scandal, alcohol, domestic abuse, car crashes, bogeymen, clandestine affairs, dearly loved and disputed family land... racial complications, vast sums of money made and lost, the return of the prodigal son, and maybe even bloody murder."
In lyrical prose and startlingly revealing photographs, she crafts a totally original form of personal history that has the pause-resisting drama of a great novel but is firmly rooted in the fertile soil of her own life.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying photographs will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.©2015 Sally Mann (P)2015 Hachette AudioListeners also enjoyed...




















Reseñas de la Crítica
"One would not need to know Sally Mann's remarkable work as a photographer to be swept up in her memoir Hold Still, which draws upon a family history so rife with jaw-dropping drama that it could provide the grist for a dozen novels. With prodigious intellect and a telling instinct for the exact detail that will reveal character or throw it into question, Mann delves into the treacherous territory of memory, mesmerized by the relentless dance of beauty and decay. In doing so, she manifests in prose the acuity of seeing that has propelled her to the top rank of contemporary artists." (Andrew Solomon, author of Far From the Tree and The Noonday Demon)

My favorite book

Her memoir, which is extraordinarily well written and something of a masterpiece of a Southern Gothic sensibility is also a major addition to an underdeveloped genre, the autobiography of a major photographer. Steichen and Sandburg explored this territory jointly, but too few others, and rarely with a verbal literacy to match the visual.
My only cavil is a minor one, and confined to the audiobook. Her frequent reference to the accompanying PDF (a valuable document in its own right) draws the listener out of the narrative, and is repetitive. Hard to see how this could have been avoided, and it is offset by the charm of her graceful reading.

Where does Hold Still rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
I enjoy the hearing about this artists life and have always enjoyed her work. But the downloadable PDF is the WORST! I think audible needs to redo. Please!Good Story PDF BAD!
