Integrating a Burning House
By Anna Gray & Ryan Wilson Paulsen
"On September 10th, years after our first days on Cable Avenue, I
finally met the neighbors. Fire is an irresistible spectacle and the
people on our block participated accordingly, bringing chairs out onto
their balconies and hovering in the street long after the heat and
smoke had cleared. "
This is an amazing little book centered around the loss of a home, the
fire and the artifacts that remain. Two essays by the people involved
are followed by a full color photo collection of the burnt remains of
their belongings. This book directly confronts our basic human urge to
sift through the remains of a tragedy. The results are both highly
gratifying and unnerving.
