The Ongoing Moment by Geoff Dyer

5.0

This book provides a compelling trip through the history of American photography that is based on thematic connection instead of strict chronology. Instead of a series of chapters, the book flows seamlessly through a series of thematic hand-offs. More than simply providing a photographic history lesson and an approach to reading a photograph and its context, "The Ongoing Moment" has given me a new perspective on my own photography and has compelled me to expand how I approach my favorite hobby.
