Foster Huntington’s new book The Burning House ($11), based off of his viral Tumblr-gone-viral, asks the simple question, “what would you take first?” to thousands of random responders around the world. In cataloging their responses, which Foster has collected over a year long journey in a 1987 Volkswagen Syncro Van, the book examines themes around: human nature, values, and bare-bones cherishment — inspired by wealth, sentimentality or anything in between. Paired with moving photography that Foster is known for, it’s a fascinating study on attachment that will leave any reader pondering what’s truly important.
