In his latest book, Magnum photographer Bruce Gilden explores the darker side of Japan. Sixty two beautifully reproduced images cover three main areas: Yakuza (Japanese mafia), Bosozoko (Biker gangs), and lastly, street life in all its brutal reality. All images have been shot in Tokyo and Osaka, and reveal how violence and hardship weave through many aspects of daily existence in these two sprawling cities. With its 'back to front' format, specialist print techniques and sporadic use of Manga cartoon imagery, this book is a collectable must.

Red linen hardcover, 34 x 22,5 cm. First edition, 2000. Black & white photographs. In very good condition other than very little soiling on cover. Limited edition. of 3000 copies. Signed by Bruce Gilden. Included in The Photobook by Parr & Badger, vol.2, p.310.
