Still Pictures: On Photography and Memory - Janet Malcolm Janet Malcolm was widely considered to be one of America's most notable literary journalists. She was a staff writer for the New Yorker and the author of several acclaimed books. This book was her final work. She turns her gaze on her own life to create this memoir of snapshots. The snapshots are literal as well as figurative; she turns her sharp eye to examining twelve faily photographs to construct a memoir of camera-caught moments. The first photograph is of a morose young Jewish girl on a train fleeing Prague in 1939 and the last is of the author's mother holding a camera. Hardback. 155 pages. Measurements: 14.4cm x 22.3cm x 1.7cm
