Morais creates a visual meaning and mood of his beloved hometown.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRichard Morais is particularly suited to this endeavor: When he writes his novels, he conveys an atmosphere or sensibility in a book by striving to capture the right image more than the right word. That's how his bestselling novel \u003ci\u003eThe Hundred-Foot Journey \u003c\/i\u003ebecame a celebrated 2014 Steven Spielberg-Oprah Winfrey film starring Helen Mirren. This book is no exception: Late one night while walking his dogs, Morais wondered what a single image would best capture a novel he was working on about his hometown, Milford. The full moon that stood over one of the back alleys prompted him to snap the beautiful, mysterious, and moody shadow-filled moonlit scene. After that first photograph, the assembly of images took on a life of its own. What started as a simple search for an image that would suit a murder mystery he was mentally formulating, became the process that ultimately morphed into its creative project: This series of photographs became a visual love letter to Milford, where his family has resided for four generations.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"G Editions","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47779290710167,"sku":"9781943876648","price":2621.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781943876648.webp?v=1778035121","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/milford-moons-a-writers-visual-letter-to-his-ancestral-village-9781943876648","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
