Photography and Literature: List of Books

    In the context of photography - literature exchanges, the seminar aims to create an inspirational base collection of titles that explore this particular ‘double narrative’ of texts and words. If you have an example of a book that might be considered in this particular context, please write to us (fotobokfestival@fffotografer.no). Publications outside of the European and American contexts are especially encouraged.

    This is an ongoing research project!
