Status Updates From Pilgrimage

This book is proving to be an enjoyable, lovely, surprise find. Leibovitz "pilgrimages" to various places of interest, photographing what compels her - unlike being on assignment. This is revelatory to her, as is the interest she finds in learning about Emily Dickinson, Robert Frost, Virginia Wolff, and where they lived and worked and with whom. My learning about this through Leibovitz's learning about this is meta.

what makes this a fascinating read is to get an editorial narrative of AL. I am fascinated by how other photographers work, so having insight into where AL is coming from, experiences, etc is enlightening, However the photo-text juxtaposition is disconcerting and really a disservice bc it tears the narrative apart.
