Vagabond

Very Good A photographic essay from and about Tulsa in the mid 70s, comparable to Larry Clarks' Tulsa. Photobook magazine's review of the book, by Michael Edelson, had this to say "Oh what William Eggleston and John Szarkowski, among many others could learn from this book. Here is the American Wasteland as particulary personified by Tulsa and that section of the country. Strange how Tulsa here as in Larry Clark's book, Tulsa, seems to be a resounding source for these observations. If it is in the soil and the people, the Tulsa Chamber of Commerce certainly will not promote it. Admittedly or not, that part of our land seems to personify a quality that is very special to the American dream. Big, sprawling, jaunty, and religious, it is a frightenly real celluloid mirror of our visions and nightmares."
