A fantastic photographic exploration of the history of the Salton Sea. Highly recommended!
REVIEWS
Rebecca Solnit : "The Salton Sea is one of the great conundrums for our time--a new place already in ruins, a toxic place that is also a wild bird refuge, a strange mix of debris and sublimity that Kim Stringfellow''s pictures and history portray compellingly." --Rebecca Solnit
Matthew Coolidge : “Kim Stringfellow’s odyssey into the Salton Sea excavates cultural relics and treasures that surprise and astound. She weaves the fragments, tatters, and shards that she found into a salty tale that makes one nostalgic for the Sea’s future, something that seems always around the bend. She has added an eloquent new exhibit to this museum of decay.”—Matthew Coolidge, Director, Center for Land Use Interpretation
Leah Ollman Los Angeles Times : "Stringfellow''s images, taken alone, may be understated, but seen in numbers and backed by her crisply elucidating text, they make for quite a saga."--Los Angeles Times
