Annie Leibovitz 39153

A Photographer's Life, 1990-2005

Random House, 2006. Linnen band met stofomslag. Pp: 472. "I don't have two lives," Annie Leibovitz writes in the Introduction to this collection of her work from 1990-2005. "This is one life, and the personal pictures and the assignment work are all part of it." Portraits of well-known figures-Johnny Cash, Nicole Kidman, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Keith Richards, Michael Jordan, Joan Didion, R2-D2, Patti Smith, Nelson Mandela, Jack Nicholson, William Burroughs, George W. Bush with members of his Cabinet-appear alongside pictures of Leibovitz's family and friends, reportage from the siege of Sarajevo in the early Nineties, and landscapes made even more indelible through Leibovitz's discerning eye. The images form a narrative rich in contrasts and continuities: The photographer has a long relationship that ends with illness and death. She chronicles the celebrations and heartbreaks of her large and robust family. She has children of her own. All the while she is working, and the public work resonates with the themes of her life.

Pornotheek Arcadie

De Arbeiderspers, 2000. Paperback. Pp: 305. Wat is het geheim van het cultboek? Kan harde porno een sentimentele ontroering veroorzaken? Waarom noemt Norman Mailer moord in vredestijd een daad van verzet? Bevindt de 'echte' kunstenaar zich in een bunker of in een salon? Waarop berust het autobiografisch misverstand? En waarom klinkt het huidige cultuurpessimisme onder Nederlandse schrijvers zo belegen? InPornotheek Arcadië heeft Joost Zwagerman twintig recente essays, kritieken en polemieken verzameld. Een aantal schreef bij in het kader van het gastschrijverschap aan de Rijksuniversiteit Groningen. Over 'the great American novels' van Truman Capote, Philip Roth en William Burroughs. Over edelporno en bastaardkunst. Over de kitsch van het doemdenken. Over Engelse belmweeliteratuur. Over schrijvers, hun fantomen en demonen. Over underground alcohol, straatrumoer, misantropie en boekverbod. Pornotheek Arcadië is een literaire zoektocht naar verloren en herwonnen paradijzen. Joost Zwagerman (1963) schreef onder meer de romans Gimmick!, Vals licht, De buitenvrouw en Chaos en Rumoer. Tevens publiceerde bij de essaybundels Collega's van God en In het wild.
