Böcker av Don McCullin

McCullin grew up in London during the aftermath of World War II. He has spent a large part of his life photographing wars in the Middle East, Africa and Asia. In this book he writes of the deprivation of his childhood and the much greater misery and horror he has witnessed during his career.

The over 140 images in the book-some rarely published or previously unseen-were edited by McCullin through the process of revisiting his archives and reassessing photographs made from the late 1950s until last year.

The imagery of his home county, ravaged by storms, inevitably projects the associations of a battlefield, or, at least, the views of one intimate with scenes of war. He is not alone in his preference for darkened clouds over clear skies.

The updated retrospective published for McCullin's 80th birthday. Contains 40 new unpublished photographs and a new introduction - the definitive edition. McCullin's reputation has long been established as one of the greatest photographers of conflict in the last century.

Don McCullin is one of the world's greatest photographers. Part of the "Photofile" series, this book brings together his best work.

Don McCullin's view of England is rooted in his wartime childhood and growing up around Finsbury Park in the fifties. At a time when we might believe the world has changed beyond our imagination, McCullin shows us a view of England where the line between the wealthy and the deprived is as defined as ever.
