Publisher Description
Austin- East of I-35 captures the essence of this tight-knight community through photographs and interviews with the people and places that bring life to East Austin. The book is an expression of East Austin's community culture, which has a personality all its own, that reflects the history through its residents' life experiences.
The diversity expressed through neighborhoods, homes and eateries, businesses and its art blend together to form the core of the vibrant community that is diverse yet cohesive with shared visions and goals, shared living spaces and lifestyles.
It is my sincere hope that this book creates a visual history of East Austin.

Austin's East side, from a very personal photographic perspective
Telling the story of community in complex layering of interviews, personal histories, spoken biographies and always vivid images, a very visual account of a changing culture that isn't especially revered in the new high-rise condo-coming sections of Austin. Rama Tiru captures the very textured fabric of place and character in a wonderfully illustrative photo essay-turned-book. Buy it and enjoy getting to know the unique individuals who are Austin's steady players in its East side.
