The Sweet Flypaper of Life by Roy DeCarava, Langston Hughes
5.0
I have always loved Langston Hughes. To read his words coupled with moving photos of Harlem by Roy DeCarava, I can almost feel what it was like to have my feet "caught in in the sweet flypaper of life" in Harlem. I loved each and every photo and the messages that were so subtle you'd miss them if you didn't stop and take in every detail of each picture.
This is a short book, but you can get lost in the photos wondering about the lives of the people in them. Absolutely beautiful.
