Book Description
I Am We is a two-way book of twenty short stories, split into 10 pairs, wherein each half of a pair is presented on either half of the book. Each title has a corresponding mate on the other side. The reader is therefore presented with ten individual stories, which are told in two entirely different ways. One half of the book represents the individual, and paints its stories within a surreal dreamscape, while the other half of the book symbolizes the collective and presents its stories in hard reality. From birth to friendship, love, ambition, prejudice, spirituality and the afterlife, I Am We traces the journey an individual takes in life, and contrasts it through the twin perspectives of fantasy and reality.

I Am Because We Are
Author: Betty Press
Publisher: Univ. Press of Mississippi
ISBN: 1617039357
Category : Photography
Languages : en
Pages : 182
Book Description
I Am Because We Are features 125 black-and-white photographs by Betty Press taken all over East and West Africa since 1987, combined with related African proverbs compiled by Annetta Miller, an American born in Tanzania. The book highlights the importance of proverbs in educating members of African societies on how to think, how to behave, and how to have a better life. Press took these photographs with the goal of making a significant educational and artistic contribution to the appreciation and understanding of African culture and society as well as our own. The photographs of daily life deal with knowledge, cooperation, love, beauty, friendship, hope, humor, sorrow, happiness, gratitude, dance, tradition, faith, peace, war, death, and human relationships. These are the same themes found in African proverbial language. Thus came the natural idea of coupling images with proverbs. Together they offer a powerful expression of African life and the universality of human emotions, ideas, and knowledge.

Accompanied by Jason O’Malley’s humorous illustrations, Willcox offers tongue-in-cheek advice for every wedding-planning moment, whether it’s dreaming up the perfect wedding-weekend hashtag, planning a gift registry to make everyone jealous of your fabulous lifestyle, or figuring out how to distance yourself from the poor, unfortunate souls who didn’t make the cut for your guest list.

Whether you’re having a big wedding to prove something to your ex, or a small wedding to make your loved ones feel excluded, this book will make you laugh through the overwhelming planning process.” —Lauren Lapkus, actor and comedian
