The Sadness of Men

the long version

"The one hundred and twenty-five duotone photographs in this collection have been carefully sequenced to build upon each other as a kind of visual fugue, an expression of the profound. The result is both universal and intensely personal, exalting and deeply humbling. It is impossible to step away from this work unmoved." "These images are the gift of a master observer with an eye tuned to the almost imperceptible miracles of everyday life. They are not the familiar one-line gags or jaded images of the poor or suffering, but rather, are evocative explorations of the lovely sadness of life and the wild, sweet rhythms of the world."--BOOK JACKET.
