Christraud M. Geary


  In and Out of Focus: Images from Central Africa, 1885-1960  Christraud M. Geary  Book Description This book accompanies an exhibition at the National Museum of African Art, Smithsonian Institution, on the role of photography in Central Africa.

The gist of this book, This Unbearable Boredom of Being , is that the most burning problems of today's America: crime, drugs, greed, ugly gender polarization, disintegration of family, decay in morals, racism, and so on, are the direct consequences of a crisis of meaning that has engulfed America.
