Description from the seller
A signed hardcover copy of this rare, long out of print title from Jim Mortram.
For seven years, Jim Mortram photographed the lives of people in his community. He made their daily struggles visible as they faced physical and mental challenges and a failing social security system. Through his camera and their testimonies, Small Town Inertia reveals their isolation and loneliness in everyday life. His work addresses difficult topics such as disability, addiction, and self-harm, but always with hope and dignity. Small Town Inertia stands as a testament to the strength and resilience of the people he documents. It introduces us to a group of individuals who recur throughout the book, their histories and lives unfolding, intertwined in a delicately woven web of photographic documentation. Mortram’s reportage and photo-documentary style enable a sensitive exploration of deeply personal stories marked by struggles related to disabilities and abuse.
Condition: as new, interior clean, no markings, hardcover as new, and dustjacket with no tears, almost like new as well.
