Year: 1972
Comments: Atsuku nagai yoru no Shima / The Island of Endless Hot Night. Softcover with illustrated dust jacket and obi, 183 mm × 144 mm, photographs in gravure.Tiny wear on the left of the dust jacket (see pictures) but rare in such a fresh condition and with its very rare obi ! Extremely scarce copy.
Nagahama's photographs of Okinawa show some of the hallmarks of the mature Provoke style--rough, grainy, and out of focus. Despite this, his images convey an extremely pointed critique of the U.S. presence on the Island, a constant since the end of W.W. II. Brilliantly printed, with blue and blue-green cyanotype toning interspersed with rich black-and-white this is a book whose closest counterpart--with which it certainly ranks--with Tomatsu's masterpiece, OO! Shinjuku!
