144 - 3 COVERS. PHOTOGRAPHY. Joachim Brohm (born 1955) and Alec Soth (born 1969). Two Rivers. Verlag der Buchhandlung Walther König, 2019. Like new, in original plastic wrap. – Alec Soth (born 1969). Sleeping by the Mississippi. Mack, 2020. 2nd reprint, hardcover in cloth, text in English. Like new, in original plastic wrap. Signed by Alec Soth. – Alec SOTH (born 1969). Niagara. Mack, 2018. Signed by Alec Soth. Following up on his critically acclaimed first monograph, *Sleeping by the Mississippi*, Alec Soth has turned his gaze to another iconic body of water: Niagara Falls. As with his photographs of the Mississippi, Soth’s images of Niagara are less about natural wonder than about human desire. “I went to Niagara for the same reason as newlyweds and people contemplating suicide,” explains Soth, “the ceaseless thunder of the falls simply calls for great passion.” Working for two years on both the American and Canadian sides of the falls using an 8 x 10 large-format camera, the photographs are rigorously composed and richly detailed. Soth depicts newlyweds and nude lovers, motel parking lots, and pawnshop wedding rings. Throughout the book, Soth has interspersed a number of love letters from the subjects he photographed. We read stories of teenage crushes, workplace affairs, heartbreak, and suicide. Oscar Wilde wrote of the Falls: “The sight of the magnificent cascade must be one of the oldest, if not the most vivid, disappointments of American married life.” In Soth’s *Niagara*, we see both passion and disappointment. His images are a remarkable portrayal of modern love and its consequences.
