Der weite Horizont der Prärie, hinter dem die Sonne untergeht, galoppierende Pferde und lässige, Lassos schwingende Cowboys. Es sind diese Bilder, die dem Mythos Amerika eine einzigartige visuelle Gestalt verleihen, ihn ebenso sicht- wie spürbar machen. Wie kaum ein anderer zeitgenössischer Fotograf hat sich Dieter Blum (*1936 in Esslingen) mit diesem Thema auseinandergesetzt, es aktualisiert und hinterfragt. Die 60 Fotografien der Serie Cowboys, die 1992 für Marlboro entstanden sind, legen hiervon Zeugnis ab und werden in diesem Ausstellungskatalog erstmals vollständig zusammengeführt. Der Topos des »Lonesome Cowboy«wird auf humorvolle Weise gebrochen und durch einen »Arbeiter« ersetzt, der im Team alltäglichen Tätigkeiten nachgeht – an der Bar steht, Zeitung liest, Wäsche wäscht, Ski fährt, ein Bad nimmt. Eine hinreißende Bildergeschichte, die Fiktion und Realität, Mythos und Wirklichkeit ineinander überführt und dekonstruiert.Ausstellung: Daimler Contemporary, Berlin 30.4.–6.11.2016

A natural storyteller
Format: Paperback
Three middle-aged women hike the mighty John Muir Trail, the crown jewel of California that covers over 200 miles of steep and rocky terrain in the Sierra. It was a big deal.
The 3-week wilderness trip extended over multiple, high-elevation passes, crossed roaring water and rose to the summit of Mount Whitney, the tallest mountain in the contiguous US at 14, 505 feet.
Griffin’s storytelling comes naturally and with ease. This inspirational, follow-your-dreams story is easy to feel surrounded by because of Griffin’s vivid writing. Luscious accounts of landscapes, macro details of the natural world and the knee-knocking, quad-stabbing terrain puts you, the reader, right there.
Conversely, the detailed prose is a huge liability in the pacing of this book. Mundane details are redundant as the book slogs on. Long descriptions overtake the read and the focus stays superficial. I would have liked much more character development, and better cadence and dialogue.

My Favorite Camino Read To Date
Format: Kindle
I have read dozens of Camino retellings. This, by Brad Chermside, is my most enjoyed. Brad is an excellent writer with no fear of exposing his insecurities and weaknesses, physical or social. His many metaphors are original and laugh-out-loud funny. He used several interesting writing techniques to keep me in suspense. The most effective being, from the start of the narrative, finding out if when he met the never met mystery woman, who was the catalyst for him beginning his journey, and he would click. It was eventually answered. Highly recommend the book. Hat's off to Mr Chermside on an excellent read.

Camino memories relived
Format: Paperback
I returned from my first Camino trip and I was wanting to stay in touch with everything related to the Camino - the friends I made there, movies on YouTube, and podcasts. It was from the podcast that I learned about Brad. He has been a constant companion to me, as I went through my own Camino 'withdrawl.' Luckily for me, after a couple of weeks from been back from the Camino, I am already able to schedule my next one. Brad's book brought back all the memories, and he put into great narrative and humor all the amazing and magical things that happen during the Camino, including also the challenges, the crying and the laughing. I am very grateful for this book.

Greatly enjoyed this book.
Format: Kindle
His long journey of self discovery is well told, with sprinkles of humor throughout. It made me long to take a pilgrimage of my my own.
