Twenty-five years later, Goldin's lush color photography and candid style still demand that the viewer encounter their profound intensity head-on. As she writes: 'Real memory, which these pictures trigger, is an invocation of the color, smell, sound and physical presence, the density and flavor of life.'

The book's influence on photography and other aesthetic realms has continued to grow, making it a classic of contemporary photography. This anniversary edition features all-new image separations produced using state-of-the-art technologies and specially prepared reproduction files, which offer a lush, immersive experience of this touchstone monograph.Nan Goldin was born in Washington, D.C., in 1953, and grew up in Lexington, Massachusetts.
