Bill Zuback, one of BeadStyle's photographers, is assembling a photo series based on his interpretations of book passages. Bill meets regularly with a group of creative people who get together to discuss art and politics, and one of their themes was "ten favorite books." That helped spur his idea of putting together a series. His favorite books? "Anything by Paul Auster," he says. His first set of images is from Travels in the Scriptorium. He's interpreting both fiction and non-fiction and posting the black and white images on his blog.
Tea, an associate editor at Bead&Button, gave Bill an excerpt from Scott Huler's Defining the Wind. Lately, Tea's been interested in learning more about how the world works, and she said that the book bridges her love of language with her love of science.
If you'd like to submit text for Bill's consideration, you can get more information from his post, What Have You Read Lately? You can also take part in the conversation by leaving comments and voting for your favorite images.
I'm trying to narrow down my submissions. I've got a novel and a memoir picked out, but I just got distracted by Gregory Berns' Satisfaction: The Science of Finding True Fulfillment, which I read a couple of years ago. Oh, how to decide?
