DN:s Lars Epstein om "A Familiar Place"

Lars Epstein i DN skriver så fint om min Stockholmsbok ”A Familiar Place”. ”En blivande klassiker”, kallar han den till och med. Jag är väldigt hedrad.

HÄR finns en filmad genombläddring av boken som Photobookstore har gjort.

"A Familiar Place" is out!

Photo book "A Familiar Place" (Journal)
"Stockholm. It is impossible to evade your beauty, vulnerability and vanity. And your flaws. Your rottenness. I visit places where you bleed, I am there picking your scabs. Sometimes I grow tired of you and your easily broken promises. But I never give up on you. Your streets have always offered me direction. Walking here today, I stumble on old memories.”

"A Familiar Place" is about the everyday life in Stockholm. The photos are documentary and I’ve been working on this project 2005-2018.

66 b/w  images • Text by Simon Johansson • Translation to English: Maria Morris • Editing and design: Gösta Flemming and Simon Johansson • Hard cover • 220 x 250 mm • 140 pages • Swedish/English • 2018.

The book is available online:
Journal

Don't hesitate to contact me for a signed copy. I got a fresh delivery in a banana box from the publisher today :).

“To approach what is there every day, what you feel and are so naturally a part of – that takes courage and a particularly prestigeless attitude. Simon Johansson shows this in his book. More than that, he does it well.” / JH Engström
