"The Home Place": "A Nebraska classic." (Saul Bellow). "That Wright Morris in his photographs seems to produce an indecent invasion of the privacy of his text is a tribute to his accurate and selective descriptive powers." ("New York Times"). "A pathbreaking and still unique example of the integration of photographs and narrative text." (Alan Trachtenberg). "An extremely able photographer and a first-rate writer." ("San Francisco Chronicle"). "A fine piece of Americana." ("Library Journal"). "A superb and ...revolutionary wedding of prose and pictures, a kind of new art form." ("Omaha World-Herald"). This account in first-person narrative and photographs of the one-day visit of Clyde Muncy to 'the home place' at Lone Tree, Nebraska, has been called 'as near to a new fiction form as you could get.' Both prose and pictures are homely: worn linoleum, an old man's shoes, well-used kitchen utensils, and weathered siding. Muncy's journey of discovery takes the measure of the man he has become and of what he has left behind. Born in 1910 in Central City, Nebraska, Wright Morris wrote thirty-three books, including "Field of Vision", which won the National Book Award. He died in 1998. John Hollander, Sterling Professor of English at Yale University, is a poet, critic, and the author of many books including "The Gazer's Spirit."
