Published by Journal in Stockholm in 2002, this first edition presents one of Anders Petersen's most intimate and emotionally charged bodies of work. Renowned for his uncompromising humanism, Petersen has spent decades photographing life at its most vulnerable, producing images that dissolve the distance between photographer and subject.

Comprising seventy-two richly printed black-and-white photographs, the book reflects Petersen's unmistakable visual language raw, immediate, and profoundly empathetic. His photographs embrace imperfection, closeness, and emotional intensity, revealing moments of tenderness, solitude, desire, and fragility with remarkable honesty.

Edited by the legendary Gösta Flemming, whose collaborations helped define the modern Scandinavian photobook, and designed by Patric Leo, this beautifully produced volume exemplifies the understated excellence of Swedish photographic publishing.

An essential publication by one of the most influential photographers of the contemporary European documentary tradition.
