The book presents Mitch Epstein's early photographic journey from 1973 to 1976, capturing the vibrancy of American cities like New York, Los Angeles, and New Orleans. Initially working in black-and-white, he transitioned to color with the encouragement of Garry Winogrand. Featuring previously unseen images, it showcases Epstein's dynamic compositions that reflect the tumultuous era marked by sexual liberation, economic challenges, and the aftermath of the Vietnam War, all while balancing his artistic exuberance with formal precision.
