Books by Roger Grenier

Most attempts to generalize about photography as a medium run up against our experience of the photographs themselves. In this book that is equal parts memoir and intellectual and cultural history, the author contemplates the ways that photography can change the course of a life, reflecting on the history of photography and its practitioners.

Brassai's most famous portraits and cityscapes, collected in this reissued book in the acclaimed Photofiles series, form a unique vision of life in pre- and post-war Europe.
