Stop Here, This is the Place
THIS IS A STORY ABOUT TWO FRIENDS — a photographer and a writer in Portland, Maine, who tried an experiment. At the start of every week for 52 weeks Winky sent Susan a photograph, and by the end of that week Susan sent a tiny story back — a moment in time that talked to the photograph. The photographs were of their children, and the street where they all lived (only one house separated their two families), and of other places in Maine. What happened while they weren’t looking was that their experiment began to slow time down. All the marriages of words and image said, Stop Here.
