Monochrome Magic
I grew up in a small Cape on Long Island, where my father, who was a voracious reader, loved to surround himself with a fortress of books. Most of my dad’s books were kept in his study on the second floor of our home, across a very tiny hall from the room I shared with my brother. The only other room on the second floor was a tiny bathroom, with a toilet, sink, and shower. At some point during my junior high school years, that second-floor bathtub was no longer used for showers. Instead, it had become a repository for books, the overflow from my dad’s study!
Now, you might be asking yourself, “Why is the writer telling me about where his dad kept books by Edmund Wilson, W. H. Auden, and Vladimir Nabokov? I thought this was an article about converting images into black-and-white photos.”
