RCC Book Club - The Picture Not Taken - by Benjamin Swett
2025-10-07 19:30 - 21:30 | Rob’s Place, 2701 Hemingway Lane, Mahwah, NJ, 07430, United States
The next Book Club selection is: The Picture Not Taken (On Life and Photography): by Benjamin Swett
The book is available in softcover and eBook (Nook and Kindle). The book is not in the BCCLS system, but is available at the Barnes and Noble in Paramus.
From the Publisher (The New York Review of Books)
In The Picture Not Taken, the photographer and writer Benjamin Swett considers the intersections between photography, memory, the natural world, and the course of life in essays on subjects that include family snapshots, images of racial violence, the shape of abiding love, and the experience of unforseen and irremediable loss. In these beautifully written, deeply affecting pages, Swett moves with a wonderful improvisatory freedom among his chosen themes. The Picture Not Taken is a book of transfixing pieces that possesses the intensity and integrity and heft of the wholly new.

Reviews:
The Picture Not Taken is a book for artists working in any art genre who dare to peer at their motivations.
– Ron Slate, On the Seawall
The title of this essay collection …hints that it won’t be about photography in the narrow sense, and indeed, it isn’t. Rather, it’s an extended meditation on the entire field of memory, emotion, personal connections, and the larger world as these forces find expression in individual images.
—Michael Dashkin, Library Journal
