LONELY LA
Introducing “Lonely LA” by Jerry Fleury
Lonely LA: Echos of Silence
Images and Poems by Jerry Fleury
“Lonely LA: Echoes of Silence” is a poignant photographic journey through the deserted streets of Los Angeles during the onset of the 2020 pandemic. This book is not just a collection of images; it's a profound exploration of a significant city caught in an unprecedented moment of stillness and solitude. Each photograph, accompanied by reflective poems, encapsulates the haunting beauty and eerie quiet that enveloped Los Angeles when it was largely devoid of its usual bustle of business, traffic, and human activity.
