Negative Positive
Title: Self-enclosed, all-too-verbal critique divorced from subject...
Review: Sonntag's gift for language is explanation enough for why she probably took few pictures and certainly not enough to justify cramming image-making into the worn categories of reproduction, oppression, and escapism. If you've got nonverbal photographic friends all too assured of the purity of their craft, this book should play counterpoint nicely. Otherwise, consider this text another example of theory uncomfortably distanced from the object of its gaze.
