[essentially as-new (it was shrink-wrapped when we got it, only unwrapped to check the printing), with only the teensiest bumping to the upper front corner; no discernible wear to the jacket]. (B&W and color photographs) A compendium of a decade and a half of the photographer's work that functions as a sort of photographic memoir, the pictures "forming a narrative of a life rich in contrasts and continuities [including] a long relationship that ends with illness and death. She chronicles the celebrations and heartbreaks of her large and robust family. She has children of her own. All the while she is working, and the public work resonates with the themes of the life." The "public work" referred to includes numerous examples included in this volume of the striking celebrity portraiture for which she is best known, but also landscapes and reportage (including the siege of Sarajevo in the early 1990s); and the illness and death chronicled (often unsparingly) is that of her longtime partner, writer Susan Sontag, who died in 2004. ****NOTE that additional postage charges will be assessed for international shipping of this large and heavy book; if this concerns you, please contact us for a shipping quote before placing your order.
