  In this landmark collection, William T. Vollmann offers a kaleidoscopic retrospective of the visual artwork he has produced over four decades, with new commentary from Vollmann on his process, inspiration, and the many intersections with his writing. 
   
   
   
  The celebrated author of over twenty-five books (among them the National Book Award–winning novel Europe Central; the seven-volume Rising Up and Rising Down, based on Vollmann's career as a war correspondent; and the two-volume climate change investigation Carbon Ideologies), Vollmann's equally ambitious and prolific career as a photographer, printmaker, and painter reflects the artist’s deep interest in people existing on the margins, a profound empathy for his subjects, and the humility and generosity to meet them on their terms. 
   
   
   
  In Shadows of Love, Shadows of Loneliness, a series of essays  commissioned especially for this book lays out Vollmann's views on what photographs can and should say, how he chooses what to represent (beauty, suffering, compassion, love, desire, ideology), thoughts on photographic consensuality, and any number of technical descriptions. Particularly useful for Vollmann fans and scholars are the cross-references between these artistic and photographic projects and his books.

  The Music of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart 
   
  When we think of Mozart, we often think of ease — music that feels effortless, natural, 
  almost inevitable. 
   
  But behind that apparent simplicity lies one of the most astonishing musical minds in 
  history. 
   
  Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was composing at an age when most children are just 
  beginning to learn their scales. By adulthood, he had mastered nearly every musical 
  form of his time — opera, symphony, chamber music, sacred works — and infused each 
  with an unmatched sense of melody, balance, and emotional truth. 
  This collection brings together some of Mozart’s most beloved and revealing works, 
  spanning comedy and tragedy, public brilliance and private reflection.
