Eudora Welty’s Photographs, originally published in 1989, serves as the definitive book of the critically acclaimed writer’s photographs. Her camera’s viewfinder captured deep compassion and her artist’s sensibilities.

Photographs is a deeply felt documentation of 1930s Mississippi taken by a keenly observant photographer who showed the human side of her subjects. Also included in the book are pictures from Welty’s travels to New York, New Orleans, South Carolina, Mexico, and Europe in the 1930s, ’40s, and ’50s.

The photographs in this edition are new digital scans of Welty’s original negatives and authentic prints, restoring the images to their original glory. It also features sixteen additional images, several of which were selected by Welty for her 1936 photography exhibit in New York City and have never before been reproduced for publication.

The book includes a resonant, new foreword by Pulitzer Prize-winning writer and Mississippi native Natasha Trethewey.

Maira Kalman paints her highly personal worldview in this inimitable combination of image and text. The Principles of Uncertainty is an irresistible invitation to experience life through a beloved artist's psyche. It is a compilation of Maira Kalman's New York Times columns.

Part personal narrative, part documentary, part travelogue, part chapbook, and all Kalman, these brilliant, whimsical paintings, ideas, and images—which initially appear random—ultimately form an intricately interconnected worldview, an idiosyncratic inner monologue.

Kalman contends with some existential questions: What is identity? What is happiness? Why do we fight wars? And then, of course, death, love, and candy (not necessarily in that order).

In the Blink of an Eye is celebrated film editor Walter Murch's vivid, multifaceted, thought-provoking essay on film editing. Starting with what might be the most basic editing question - Why do cuts work? - Murch treats the reader to a wonderful ride through the aesthetics and practical concerns of cutting film.

Along the way, he offers his unique insights on such subjects as continuity and discontinuity in editing, dreaming, and reality; criteria for a good cut; the blink of the eye as an emotional cue; digital editing; and much more.

In this second edition, Murch reconsiders and completely revises his popular first edition's lengthy meditation on digital editing in light of the technological changes that have taken place in the six years since its publication.
