<h2>Photographs by Richard Renaldi</h2><h3>Introduction by Michael Cunningham</h3><br /><p class='stats-top'>10.25 in. x 12.25 in. / 184 pages / 89 tritone images / Casebound with jacket / Edition of 1200</p><p>In the spring of 2000, Richard Renaldi began making frequent trips to the small New England city of Fall River, Massachusetts. Situated just a short distance from the Atlantic coast, Fall River was once at the very center of American textile manufacturing. Renaldi&rsquo;s aim was to photograph the young men of Fall River coming of age amidst an industrial landscape well past its boom years. This extraordinary body of images&mdash;both portraits and landscapes&mdash;is gathered here for the first time in Renaldi&rsquo;s second monograph, Fall River Boys.</p><br /><p>The resulting photographs, made over the course of nine years, are not brief encounters. Renaldi&rsquo;s quiet gaze considers his subjects with neither judgment nor irony. What emerges is a nuanced portrait of a city where young men grow into manhood surrounded by a landscape of idyllic natural beauty, frayed at the margins by darkened relics of an industrial past. Like the city of Fall River itself, the boys looking directly into Renaldi&rsquo;s lens face an uncertain future, at once hinting of possibility yet promising nothing.</p><br /><p>Fall River Boys is a beautiful, clothbound volume of 89 black-and-white images reproduced in rich tritone and published in an edition of 1200. The introduction is an original essay by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Michael Cunningham.</p> 2009-03-05T14:20:42-05:00 fall-river-boys 5617362 Books 2009-03-05T14:20:42-05:00 2009-05-08T17:47:59-04:00 Charles Lane Press <h2>Photographs by Richard Renaldi</h2><h3>Introduction by Michael Cunningham</h3> <p class='stats-top'>10.25 in. x 12.25 in. / 184 pages / 89 tritone images / Casebound with jacket / Edition of 1200</p><p>In the spring of 2000, Richard Renaldi began making frequent trips to the small New England city of Fall River, Massachusetts.
