BOOK REVIEW by Writer Juliana Lightle
“Evidence of Flossing: What We Leave Behind provides an unexpected metaphor for individual life, culture, and so much more.

BOOK REVIEW by Author Mary O’Connor
“Poet by nature and street photographer by perspective, author Jennifer Payne turns to the curious thematic image of a flosser to make an arresting statement in her new book about our world and about how, in so many ways, we influence its being. The thought of marrying a cast-off dental apparatus with such discordant thoughts…

Using the unique and cohesive symbol of the pocket dental flosser, Evidence of Flossing: What We Leave Behind explores nature and our place within our…
