Listen to Dalt read from French Quarter Fables.
“I love doing books and hope to go on doing it with every major body of work. I love the idea of my work becoming a part of someone’s intimate life. Something they can turn to when they need it. When I think of what Heinrich Kuhn’s and Josef Sudek’s books on my coffee table have done for me, I can only hope that mine could one day do the same for someone else somewhere.”
