Description: "Each family constellation is complex and distinct, characterized by unspoken bonds and subtle tensions. In turning a lens on her own family, photographer Andrea Stern illuminates a psychologically compelling world. She provides an intimate perspective not only on major events - weddings, bar mitzvahs, funerals - but also on daily life - visits to a grandmother, Shabbos lunch, weekend trips. In the midst of bustling celebrations, Stern offers insight into the ever-present strains that arise as family members endeavor to balance their loyalties to themselves and to each other."--BOOK JACKET.
