"A moving look at the ties that bind."- Publisher's Weekly
An intimate look at the complexities of family life told through evocative photography and authentic interviews.

Families are a mystery. Is everyone's as complicated as ours? Is there such a thing as a "normal" one? We generally only get to see the polished exteriors and are left to imagine what might be going on behind closed doors. Here is a book that takes us on a tour around the reality of families. It provides a rare, privileged glimpse into private realms, allowing us a new, profound understanding of ourselves and others.
Comprised of 60 interviews and portraits captured by five supremely talented photographers - Mark Hobbs, Kate Peters, Marjolaine Ryley, Michelle Sank and Naomi Williams - the book introduces us to an extraordinary array of participants: new parents, stepchildren, siblings, the wealthy and the marginalized, the old and the young.
In this book, photographs intertwine with the the subject's story, reminding us of Humans of New York - a photographic project by Brandon Stanton which portraits daily glimpses into the lives of strangers on the streets of New York City.
What surfaces is the astounding diversity of family life - and the number of commonalities too. Above all, we recognize the fundamental role that family plays in making us who we are.This is a book for anyone who has ever wondered about their family or fantasized about being part of someone else's - in short, this is a book for us all.
