{"product_id":"books-lee-friedlander-pickup-by-lee-friedlander","title":"Lee Friedlander: Pickup","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn this compendium Lee Friedlander examines the ordinary pickup truck, a quintessentially American mode of transportation. Unadorned in form as well as function, pickups have long been the vehicle of choice for farmers and tradespeople. Their well-worn beds-usually open to the elements, laid bare for all to see-have held and hauled all manner of things, from spare tires and jumbles of wires to animals and the occasional person. Friedlander, in his witty and encompassing clear-eyed idiom, has observed this most utilitarian and unapologetically personal object in its native setting: the cacophonous bricolage that is the American social landscape.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eLiving for an hour or more inside his superb way of seeing is like taking a walk down a busy city street on a bright day: your ordinary vision is transformed into something sharper, more uncanny, more intelligent and more generous.\u003c\/i\u003e -Teju Cole, the New York Times Magazine\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"World of Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53670766280977,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783958295018.jpg?v=1781512668","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/books-lee-friedlander-pickup-by-lee-friedlander","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
