" New Delta Rising is a stunning portrait of the Mississippi Delta that captures both the voices and faces of a people, their homes, and their landscape with hauntingly beautiful images. Magdalena Solé is an exceptionally gifted photographer whose rich, color images bring clarity and new understanding to this complex region." --William R. Ferris, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, This book is a tribute to the people of the Mississippi Delta. . . . Getting to know [them] has made me optimistic about facing the challenges of the future. It is my hope that readers of this volume will be heartened and inspired by the lives represented here.Barry H. Smith, M.D., Ph.D., director of the Dreyfus Health Foundation, Ms. Solé's lushly colorful and formally striking images are restless. The people . . . are lively and in motion, contrasting sharply with their crumbling surroundings. The colors Ms. Solé finds everywhere . . . are visual metaphors for the culture and history that remain vivid even beneath the cracking surface. . . .

Synopsis
The Mississippi Delta has been called "the most southern place on earth." This fertile expanse of flat land sprawls along the Mississippi River from Memphis, Tennessee, southward to Vicksburg, Mississippi. Culturally rich as well, the Delta is the land where the blues began. New Delta Rising is an exploration of Mississippi Delta life and a celebration of the indefatigable Delta people who live there. Award-winning photographer Magdalena Solé spent a year interviewing and photographing hundreds of residents in the Mississippi Delta. The deep connection she felt comes through in the compelling images in this book. Solé captures their personal dignity, resilience, and resourcefulness, along with the closeness of family and community she found among them. The accompanying text gives voice to the people of the Delta, illuminating their strength and character and spirit--a spirit bound up in a deeply rooted sense of place and shown in their compassion for one another. In their stories the people of the Delta have much to offer to the rest of the United States. Rick Bragg, the acclaimed author of All Over but the Shoutin' , contributes to the volume a lyrical essay evoking the distinctive aura of the Mississippi Delta. He writes, "Myth and magic and legend swirl into the real world, and it can be hard to tell where one stops and the other begins.", The Mississippi Delta has been called ?the most southern place on earth.?

- 1***c (26)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufOrdering the true 1st edition of this book proved to be an ordeal. It took me four goes to finally land one! It seems for this specific book the automated form filling software used by many sellers puts forward the multiple reprints between 1999 and 2001 as 1st editions. Thankfully this seller provided detailed photos, so I could order in confidence. The book arrived on the 1st day of the delivery window and was very securely boxed up. A happy customer.
