Reynolds Price (1933-2011) was one America's greatest writers. What is not well known is that Price was also a visionary collector. In his modest North Carolina house, Price curated and arranged his books, photographs, paintings, sculptures, masks, religious icons, and objects he collected over the years. As we turn the pages of this book, it is as if Reynolds Price himself takes us on a guided tour of his home.
