Definitive Stories brings us a book without words, just photography folded in a way to show the effects of climate change. Open it and place it zigzagged in the middle of your kitchen table and walk around it. From one end you see Antarctica, from the other end Sudan and in the middle cause and effect. More art installation than book, it allows the viewer to make up their own mind, to explore and discover ones personal reaction to climate change.

Review:

CAUSE AND EFFECT To view one of the most compelling photo-essay presentations I have seen in a long, long time, please visit: DEFINITIVE STORIES. Click on the lower left-hand button and you will visit the driest inhabited place on Earth (war-torn and starvation-plagued Sudan) and the most imperiled accumulation of glaciers (Antarctica). You will also get a sense of fragility and interconnectedness of our planet and the impact of climate change on two extreme locales: 12 Degrees N x 23 Degrees E vs. 64 Degrees S x 60 Degrees E. --David Friend, Vanity Fair
