Book Description
Phyllis was a vital, single woman, a photographer and writer, who was enjoying life in the city when she was suddenly stricken by Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD), a disease rarer than a lightning strike that spreads, incredibly, via a non-living molecule called a prion. Terrified to realize she couldn't perform her duties at work, Phyllis very soon couldn't even find her way to her desk or to her apartment from the corner store. Informed of his sister's diagnosis with this dementing and always fatal illness, her estranged brother, her only living relative, brought her home (against the advice of her doctors) to care for her with his wife. The profoundly affecting memoir illuminates how closeness can deepen when words are lost--an inspiring truth to anyone with a friend or family member with dementia.

Book Description
Special Nothing is a collection of travel photos by Phyllis Ma in the form of still lifes. To Ma, "special nothings" are those everyday objects that, on the right day, or in the right moment, are sources of pure delight: a very hairy flower; a block of head cheese the size and shape of an iPhone; a gherkin that looks especially perverse. Shot in Berlin, London, Tokyo, Mexico City and New York, the photo book is a unique travel diary, a distillation of those moments when the commonplace and the strange coalesce, turn into something magical, surreal.Essay by Erin Sheehy. Design by Ongoing Projects.
