Quoted by André Kertesz, Bruce Davidson, and Elliott Erwitt as a rare and intimate view of the spirit of youth, these images are able to bring back the childhood of everyone. Ballen leads us across the continents of Europe, Asia, and North America in search of boyhood, depicting the magic of boys revealed in their games, adventures, dreams, and mischief. More of an ode or a memory than a literal document, Ballens' first book is as powerful and current today as it was 43 years ago, presenting a stunning series of timeless images that transcend social and cultural particularities. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hardback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 112 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15 September 2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Damiani\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis new and expanded edition of Roger Ballens widely acclaimed 1979 photobook, Boyhood, features new and unpublished images taken by the photographer in the 1970s.
