Later printing of the classic collaboration between Roy DeCarava and Langston Hughes. Small octavo, original half cloth. Fine in a near fine dust jacket. Acknowledged as the most influential black writer of his generation, and as one of the greatest American poets of all time here composed a fictional story to accompany DeCaravaâs images, creating a lyrical tale about imaginary characters to go with photographs of real people" (Roth, 138). Hailed as "an important step forward" in the history of photobooks, Sweet Flypaper of Life proved especially significant in its "design, featuring a pacy, cinematic style. It is also a book that had more impact in its cheaper paperback edition, since, radically, Hughesâ text begins on the cover" (Parr & Badger II:242). "The book won two awards, received critical acclaim in The New York Times Book Review sold out its first edition, and was reprinted many times. It is one of the most successful collaborations between a great writer and a great photographer ever published" (Roth, 138). N° de réf. du vendeur 147018

First edition thus. Hardcover. 96 pages. A reissue of this classic collaboration. A very important book with text by Hughes and 141 photographs by DeCarava. A near fine copy in cloth boards in a very good plus dust jacket with a small abrasion to the front panel, some other light wear, and some faint spotting to the verso. Still a very nice copy of this seemingly quite uncommon book. N° de réf. du vendeur 192252
