"Wild Flowers is Joel Meyerowitz's perceptive look at life's rituals and follies, and shows us with tongue-in-cheek lightheartedness the irony, comedy, and beauuty of everyday life. In the photographer's own words, 'These life moments are like flowers -- within their unfolding and mysterious form, they are a world of luster and dust, of silk and wax. They bloom and they fade.' "
(front flap)

The photographer "has been recognized worldwide as one of the most important and innovative color photographers of our day. His second book and its exhibition, St. Louis & the Arch, confirmed and enhanced his reputation." (rear flap).
