TO:KY:OO
Liam Wong's debut monograph, a cyberpunk-inspired exploration of nocturnal Tokyo.
'I want to take real moments and transform them into something surreal, to make the viewer question the reality depicted in each photograph. This body of work encompasses my three years as a photographer and ultimately the completion of my debut photo series.'
Liam Wong
A testament to the deep art of colour composition, this publication - art directed by Wong himself and produced to the highest printing standard - brings together a complete and refined body of images that are evocative, timeless and completely transporting. Rounding out the book's special treatment is the first publication use of the 45/90 font, designed by Henrik Kubel, of London-based A2-TYPE. The book also features a section that reveals the creative and technical process of Wong's method, from identifying the right scene to composition, from capturing the essence of a moment to enhancing colour values and deepening an image's impact - insights are invaluable to admirers and photography enthusiasts alike.

Quiet Days in Clichy
Here, even if I had a thousand dollar in my pocket, I know of no sight which could arouse in me the feeling of ecstasy'. Looking back to Henry Miller's bohemian life in 1930s Paris, when he was an obscure, penniless writer, Quiet Days in Clichy is a love letter to a city. As he describes nocturnal wanderings through shabby Montmartre streets, cafes and bars, sexual liaisons and volatile love affairs, Miller brilliantly evokes a period that would shape his entire life and oeuvre. "His writing is flamboyant, torrential, chaotic, treacherous, and dangerous." (Anais Nin).

Into the Spotlight
Though Into the Spotlight is drawn from the work of writers from one of Europe's smallest countries, this source reveals itself to be something like a magic lamp out of which comes a multitude of subjects, themes, and styles well out of proportion to its size. Like the best writers, this anthology brilliantly balances the specific and the universal. There are stories that could have taken place anywhere-of love and hate, beauty and ugliness, illness and music-stories distinctly and intriguingly Slovak-of a devout Slovak's imprisonment in the Russian Gulag, the rough and tumble world of the country's Roma-stories from other countries and continents, and stories that seem to come from other worlds entirely-of real or imaginary doubles and surreal nocturnal circuses.
Lacná kniha Célébrations (-70%)
A travers leur apparente disparité, ces quatre-vingt-deux texticules ont pour source commune la curiosité de l'auteur et son ouverture sur le monde extérieur. La beauté des tres et des choses, leur bizarrerie, leur drôlerie, leur saveur justifient et récompensent une chasse heureuse et insatiable. La démarche des quadrupdes - amble ou diagonale ? -, la valeur fondamentale du genou, les secrets de la grve dévoilés par le jusant, les déambulations nocturnes des hérissons, la haine que les arbres se vouent les uns aux autres, et aussi ces personnages tutélaires, les Rois Mages, le Pre Noël, saint Christophe, Saint Louis, et surtout ces hommes et ces femmes dévorés par les médias - Sacha Guitry, lady Diana, Michael Jackson -, et enfin ces amis qui sont maintenant de l'autre côté du fleuve, voici ce dont il est question dans ces pages.
