Carol’s Book Report - “A Book of Days” by Patti Smith

Patti Smith took pictures with her Land Camera 250 until she could no longer get supplies for it. So she started shooting with her phone and in 2018 she posted her first Instagram photo. 

This book is a sampling of those posts. They are of many things; family, Cairo her cat, graves of beloved authors, her morning coffee, her shoes, train stations, etc. You get the picture. They offer a personal look into her life, the things around her, and what matters. Each photo is captioned in some way that further offers a look into Patti Smith’s personality. 

This is a great little book and a companion to Smith’s Just Kids and M Train.

This title is available in print at the Library.
