Mauro Marinelli / Rob Lloyd Under Old Stars Wanderings In Italian Hill Towns

Through black and white images and prose sketches, Under Old Stars takes readers on a journey to discover a world largely lost today, among people deeply at home with their old ways, in remote hill towns in southcentral Italy. Mauro Marinelli's stark, yet lyrical, photographs reveal the beauty and wonder in small things – a foot on the stair, sunlight on a wall, the flower pot atop a confessional. His unsentimental and intriguing portraits invite us deep into the lives of people time forgot. Rob Lloyd's sensual and meditative prose sketches include historical reveries, street scenes, snippets of overheard conversations, and private moments, real and imagined. His vignettes of village life stand both apart from and together with photographs to provide a dreamscape of a disappearing past.

Born to Italian immigrant parents and raised in White Plains, New York, Mauro Marinelli has published two photography books: Old Timers: The Italians (1979), and The Burden of Wings (Kehrer 2014).

Also from New York, Rob Lloyd spent most of his career in Los Angeles writing and producing TV shows; currently, he is a college professor in Tennessee.
