This time in looking and reading Harvey Stein's photograhically evocative book, i felt at a loss. I am not a photograher nor a student or traveling companion on this trip(and many others that i read about in the Preface) i see and feel as a lay person. Many of the reviews spoke about things that i was not familiar with..certain things that fellow photographers know about. Despite my naivete, the book left a lasting impression..i thought about the people, their environs, their rituals..pieces of their lives caught momentarily. It did not feel to me as a happy life, one of joy and happy celebration. It was, for me, life lived in poverty, rubble and seeming lack of joy or smiles. It left me troubled. The fact that it had such an impact is largely due to Harvey's amazing eye for capturing the moment, the bars(feeling like imprisonment) the smiling masks on faces..wondering what lay underneath. ..the cragged, tired looking faces and bodies, and all of a sudden, a little basketed baby sleeping next to shelves of fruit. It was what u do when u have to sell and want to keep an eye on your child. That, for me, was the most tender moment. Harvey is so good at not only photograhy but in making you think about the stories..and when i thought about their stories, i felt a sadness in their struggles..that was what i couldnt get out of my mind. That is why Harvey is so good. He shows you things not always pretty but challenging. Kudos to Harvey to make people think and feel some very complicated emotions. Best, maggi rand

The book was professionally packed (with no chance for damage during shipping). It arrived before estimated date. There is a short essay that accompanies the two photo spread that I included here. If I could change anything about the book... I would very much like to read more of the backstories that swirl around these images. I like the size of the book. All the images are at least 8x10 inches and most are larger than that. There are images on every page... so there has to be more than 150 photos! Harvey is a people photographer and this book is crammed with portraits.

Harvey Stein’s Mexico Between Life and Death, is an intense journey into the heart ofthe place and the hearts of the people.When a photographer returns to a country over so many years, a familiarity and a relationship develops with the subject. Stein’s affection and objectivity combine to reveal a Mexico that is at once tough, scary, tender and fragile.He is in close with the people, with what I suspect is an extremely wide angle lens. Accepted as part of the scene. it’s almost as if the moments are witnessed by an invisible eye, their expressions seemingly unaware or unconcerned with this witness with a camera. In strong black and white images this is a street photography book with brilliant juxtapositions. Stein’s use of the edges of the frame are as important as the center. His fluency with the medium and language of photography, there can be no doubt. these poetic images, finds the transcendent in the ordinary.This is what makes these images remarkable, a documentarian who sees with the eyes of a poet.

This book is a great culmination of 15+ years of visits to several parts of Mexico. The work itself is excellent - some of his best yet. Also, the quality of printing and binding is top notch. Photos are large, with no awkward layouts. The sequencing of the photos is also well thought out. If you are a fan of Harvey Stein, Mexico, or street photography, this is worth having in your collection!

Even if you've been to Mexico many times, when you read this book you will see the country and its people with new eyes. Harvey Stein's eyes--observant, compassionate, and always looking where you might not have thought to look. Here he focuses on the rituals of life and death, but as always his larger subject is the transcendent beauty of the everyday.

Another outstanding work by Harvey Stein! The photos are outstanding as always and capture a level of emotion that I can only dream of aspiring to as a photographer.

I think Harvey says it best in the intro of his book when he describes Mexico as "...a country of paradox, beautiful and serene, but with a palpable air of poverty and struggle."Harvey explores these dichotomies with his attention to irony, infatuation with overlooked beauty and his exceptional sense of light and composition. His many visits to Mexico have not only provided him with an artistic understanding of an extremely enthralling and specific facet of the country's culture (the celebration of death), but a seemingly spiritual one as well.Harvey’s images are transporting; each one immortalizes a moment that feels as if it’s suspended between our realm and another...between life and death. I'm in awe of his understanding of light and darkness, which permeates this book both literally and figuratively, and is what I find to be the most beautifully haunting element of this impressive photographic work.Thank you for bringing us to Mexico through your lens, Harvey!

Harvey Stein’s new book takes you on an extraordinary journey. This collection of exquisite images tells the story of the photographer’s profound personal relationship with both the landscape/cityscape of Mexico and its people. While every photograph included in the collection is a stand-alone pictorial narration, the book offers a deeply honest vision of what Mexico is to Harvey Stein. Not only does the reader/viewer enjoy the photographs in the book, but he or she also learns about living (and dying) in Mexico as seen through the photographer’s lens. In this book Harvey Stein masterfully captures and portrays the whimsical and so hard to define state of “in-betweenness” of dynamic street life. This book should be in every photography fan’s collection.
