TEAM PHOTOGRAPH



A GRAPHIC NOVEL

AVAILABLE NOW

"In her extraordinary graphic novel, Lauren Haldeman layers the warfare of soccer over the battlefields of Bull Run, where her soccer team would practice and compete. The park and surrounding town of Fairfax Station, Virginia set the landscape for the book, where the narrator regularly encounters spectral visions of wounded soldiers at night, and where bullet shells, buttons, and human bones surface around the soccer fields in daylight."


"As Haldeman’s memoir shows, courage lies in facing the past and endeavoring to understand."

- Los Angeles Review of Books

"This haunted and haunting work will linger in the minds of readers."

- Publisher’s Weekly

"Team Photograph teems with dissonance and liminality but coalesces into something tangible, if still ethereal."

- Colorado Review

"Melancholy yet powerful, Team Photograph is an intertwining of histories that ebbs and flows with ease."

- The Little Village

CALENDAY

FINALIST FOR THE JULIE SUK AWARD

Calenday is a book of poems that you can read! I wrote it with my mind and my hands. It is mostly about blueprints, ghosts, parents & children, but it is also about data-syncing, animals showing love, the unseen world, sycamores…
