Kitarubeki Kotoba no Tameni / For a Language to Come
- Tokyo: Fudosha, 1970
Tokyo: Fudosha, 1970. Upper edge of text block lightly bumped, else close to near fine in a very good jacket, rubbed along the edges; distinctive bullet slipcase is lightly soiled, rubbed, and crimped at the opening. A sound, presentable copy of this Provoke masterpiece.. First Edition. Quarto. Nakahira was one of the founders of the Provoke movement of Japanese photography and literature. His blurred, distorted, dark, and depressing pictures capture the reality of a postindustrial Japan hurtling out of control. The use of bleeds and double page spreads adds a cinematic freneticism to the work. (Parr / Badger, v1, 292-293; Auer 524).
