What better way to celebrate 50 years of book publishing than to celebrate everyday life in Maine. Gathering the work of 50 photographers from all over the state, the book captures the day to day lives of ordinary Mainers. Primarily a book about people, these images are arranged to follow the course of a day, starting with morning routines, passing through the events of the day, and closing at night
It's a stunning tribute to the extraordinary that can be found in the ordinary. Together these images compose a moving portrait of a small place at a small moment in time.
Susan Conley, a native Mainer, is the author of The Foremost Good Fortune (Knopf 2011), an Oprah
Magazine “Top Ten” pick and winner of the Maine Literary Award for Memoir, and the novel Paris Was
the Place, a People Magazine “Top Pick,” Elle Magazine “Readers Prize” selection and Amazon “Big
Books for Fall” selection. Her books have been excerpted in The New York Times Magazine and the Daily Beast. She is the co-founder of The Telling Room, a creative writing lab in Portland, Maine, teaching
thousands of kids a year (and featured this month in the Boston Globe). She has had pieces in Down East
Magazine and is also a TED speaker, a frequent guest on Maine’s NPR subsidiary MPBN, and the
Portland Press Herald’s awardee for “Greatest Women in Maine.”
