Andrew Moore: Detroit Disassembled at the Strand Bookstore (Damiani/Akron Art Museum)

On Thursday, May 13, the Strand Bookstore hosted a conversation between photographer Andrew Moore and poet Philip Levine on Moore's new book Detroit Disassembled. Levine began by reading a few poems inspired by his hometown of Detroit, and told stories of his youth there. Moore described his experiences in today's Detroit, illustrated with slides of images from the book, and CSPAN was there recording the whole thing for an episode of BookTV.
