Box Camera Chronicles
Pearl Atkins Schwartz, author
The characters in BOX CAMERA CHRONICLES reflect the noble dreams of people who confront the conflicts between the old and the new worlds. The stories take place in the 20th century. Several are about immigrants who arrived in New York City around the turn of the century; others are set in such diverse places as Mexico and Egypt and capture the allure of different cultures.
Reviews
Leonard Tourney author of Time's Fool
Pearl Atkins Schwartz has a marvelous sensitivity to the understated drama of real life, conveyed here in finely-crafted scenes, arresting characters, and vivid description evocative of a past world.
Shelley Lowenkopf, author and lecturer, USC
These are in large measure gritty evocative stories, capturing with some powerful effect a time and culture with the grainy honesty of black-and-white photography.
