POLAROIDS is a collection of story/snapshots from a life-long
scrapbook: quick images of passing moments in the life of Jackie
Barron--hapless lover, hopeless drinker, publicist, pub-crawler,
defender of the English language, defendant in the court of life.
In 1965 the black & white Polaroid Swinger captured moments
available to no one but the photographer and the subject, creating
a whole new world of bedroom photography. No hair-and-makeup
artists, lighting crew, scenic designer and wardrobe department.
Sometimes no wardrobe. "Bedroom photography" is an apt metaphor for
POLAROIDS. This brilliant collection captures Jackie Barron's
memories in a succession of startling flashes. Butler says, "If
someone reads one of these stories and says, 'Did you really do
that?' the answer is almost certainly no. Not exactly. Unless maybe
the story concerns some thoroughly humiliating experience; there's
a pretty good chance I may have done that one." His stories are a
life's truths, imagined.
