Book Reviews of Presumed Innocence
Book Review: Review of Presumed Innocence
Summary: 2 Stars
I couldn't really get into these photographs. They're very honest depictions of children, very realistic, very down to earth, but they don't, to me, show the awareness inside these children that the title "Presumed Innocence" promises. I think most people will just see these children as innocent children. I don't think there's much here that will shake that prevalent belief. The girl on the cover hints a bit at it, and there are a few very powerful pictures, but I just didn't find much here that really portrayed these children as anything but what the adults around them have made them. In another published book, of which I can't remember the name, I once read a poem written by a fifteen year old boy who had killed himself, and, to me, that one poem captured the hidden awareness of children more than any of these pictures did. I think for children to break free of the "innocent" label, they need to be demonstrated to be using their own free will. I would like to look at photographs of that.
