Littoral
In this episode of Biblioscapes In Discussion I am joined by the photographers and curators behind the collaboration, Littoral.
The book includes 35 black and white images by three acclaimed photographers - Lynn Fraser, Ali Lewis and Fiona McCowan - around the theme of coastal fringes. The photographs are linked by a reflective essay on memories and personal stories from Jeff Young (author of "Ghost Town - A Liverpool Shadowplay".
We also discussed a selection of each of their favourite books… it’s going to be a long list!
