About this Item

First edition of Goldin's masterpiece. Oblong octavo, original cloth, illustrated with 125 color photographs. Near fine in a near fine dust jacket. Edited with Marvin Heiferman, Mark Holborn and Suzanne Fletcher. â The Ballad of Sexual Dependency, like most of the great photobooks, is an honest, troubling, passionate, deeply poetic mirror held up to our timesâ (Parr & Badger II:39). Intensely personal, The Ballad of Sexual Dependency is Nan Goldin's visual diary. For more than ten years, Goldin chronicled her life and that of her extended family in Boston, Berlin, London, and New York's Lower East Side. "Ballad of Sexual Dependency is at once a diary and a soap opera, an unerring portrait of a particular East Village bohemia and a sexual taxonomy of the '80s" (Village Voice).
