À propos du Ebook
Dubbed The Paris of the South; branded as The Cesspool of Sin; this small mountain city, landlocked in the heart of Appalachia, is an anomaly draped in paradox. Dichotomies and juxtapositions are intertwined. From the extremes of political and cultural divisions, to living statues and traditional bluegrass music performed on the sidewalks of a bustling town, the images presented in this collection are a glimpse into the soul of a city that is unified by its very diversity.
The street performances and candid moments presented in this book are not mere examples of showcasing,but a way of life and personal expression. Daily living is transformed into an outlet for creativity; a blending of worldliness and childhood innocence void of the trappings of pretense, and where art itself is the very oxygen for life. These are people living their art and engaging in the art of living.
