D’Artagnan Books


This is a signed first edition in good condition.  It was published by Sarah Crichton Books in 2006.

 

'What's left when a relationship ends?  Where does jealousy come from?  Delicately and sensitively, Leanne Shapton ruminates on ex-lovers, and our lovers' ex-lovers.  A few expressive pencil lines outline a long-abandoned winter coat here, an ineffably alluring Mona Lisa smile there.  Each double page describes the way all exes are captured: as impossible to live up to as a Polaroid taken at a flattering angle.'
