With the candid quirkiness of Awkward Family Photos and the confessional intimacy of PostSecret, Ransom Riggs's Talking Pictures is a haunting collection of antique found photographswith evocative inscriptions that bring these lost personal moments to lifefrom the author of the New York Times bestselling illustrated novel Miss Peregrines Home for Peculiar Children. Each image in Talking Pictures reveals a singular, frozen moment in a persons life, be it joyful, quiet, or steeped in sorrow. Yet the books unique depth comes from the writing accompanying each photo: as with the caption revealing how one seemingly random snapshot of a dancing couple captured the first dance of their 40-year marriage, each successive inscription shines like a flashbulb illuminating a photographs particular context and lighting up our connection to the past.
