Laura Fraser: June 2008 Archives

This is Who I Am by Rosanne Olson is a book is about women, body image and compassion. It consists of discreetly nude photographs of 54 women between the ages of 19-95. Each image is accompanied by a small essay about that woman’s story. The topics include youth, aging, pregnancy, menopause, illness, health, obesity and much more. It is currently on the “best seller” list for non-fiction in the Pacific Northwest. SF will be my first reading out of the Northwest and I hope that women, their daughters, sons and husbands will come.
