Slant Rhymes is a conversation between two world renowned photographers, Magnum photographer Alex Webb and poet and photographer Rebecca Norris Webb, a married creative couple who have authored 18 books.

Selected from photographs taken during the Webbs' nearly 30-year friendship and later marriage and creative partnership, this group of 80 photographs are paired-one of Alex's, one of Rebecca's-to create a series of visual rhymes that talk to one another-often at a «slant» and in intriguing and revealing ways.
«Sometimes we find our photographic slant rhymes share a similar palette or tone or geometry,» writes Alex Webb in the introduction to the book. «Other times, our paired photographs strike a similar note-often a penchant for surreal or surprising or enigmatic moments-although often in two different keys».

Made in some 15 countries, these photographs-most of which have never before been published-are interwoven with short text pieces written by the Webbs while they were working together and apart. Taken together, the work forms a kind unfinished love poem, told at a slant.
