About this Item

A weathered door handle. A spiraling staircase. The face of a shorn ewe. Hand-painted kitchen containers. Textured lawn furniture. A statue of the Buddha. These objects possess true meaning if framed in just the right way. They can fortify and motivate, and perhaps more importantly, they can tell us much about ourselves. This is the philosophy of Carol Mossa, a photographer who uses the power of the image to heal and to inspire. In Linger Longer: Lessons from a Contemplative Life, Mossa couples her stunning photographs with insightful observations, creating what could be called a book of visual aphorisms. She demonstrates, as the title suggests, that profound significance resides in the mundane if only we learn to see what's truly in front of us. After you linger longer, you will not look at your life in the same way.
