Hey...I have an idea

I know that this proposal was supposed to be before break, but I didn't know what I wanted to do for my final project on Pedro Paramo at that point in time.  Ok, so....after some research I found that not only in Juan Rulfo a fantastic writer, but he is also a great photographer. I noticed a collection of his Juan Rulfo's Mexico might have some interesting photos that may relate to some of his depictions in the novel about abandoned ghost-infested towns of Mexico.  I hoping to create something like a collage to show some of these pictures and compare it maybe to some of the scenes in the book.  Thus far in the novel, I have found that this book in particular has given me a set image of what poor parts of Mexico may have looked like at certain points in time. The author does an excellent job in this department, and I think that a renowned photographer I am sure that his photographs reflect some the ideas in Pedro Paramo.
