Reviews
Orvell (English and American studies, Temple Univ.) provides a fine sequel to his cultural study, The Real Thing (Univ. of North Carolina Pr., 1989), winner of the Franklin Publication Prize of the American Studies Association. Ten literate essays, several originating as talks, cover Charles Sheeler, Lewis Hine, James Agee and Walker Evans, Weegee, Sebastiao Salgado, Buster Keaton, documentary film, Krazy Kat, Art Spiegelman's Maus, and Euro-Disney and the impact of information technology and virtual reality on contemporary culture. Whitman's forward-looking vision is frequently invoked as Orvell asks "living as we do, after the machine, what's left of society?" Highly recommended to specialists and informed general readers for its many excellent insights on industrialism and photography, film, and related visual arts.?Mary Hamel-Schwulst, Towson State Univ., Md.
