Amsterdam De Verbeelding Softcover, oblong (no dust jacket, as issued). Photographs and text by Bertien van Manen. Introduction by Ryszard Kapuscinski. In a very fine condition (slight traces of use affecting only the wrappers, perhaps a very light discolouring of a part of the back wrapper). ISBN 9074159087. Signed copy of the 1994 first edition. Of the many photobooks documenting the social and political situation following the collapse of the Soviet empire, "Dutch photographer Bertien Van Manen's book is a remarkable piece of work by an astute photographer who refuses to take the easy option and go for the cheap shot"-- Parr The Photobook: A History, Volume II. (London and New York: Phaidon, 2006).
