A signed copy of a seminal photobook published in 1978 by Asahi Sonorama as Volume 6 of the Sonorama Photography Anthology. Building on Moriyama’s iconic 1968 Japan: A Photo Theater, this sequel captures the gritty, chaotic essence of Japan’s urban underbelly through raw, high-contrast black-and-white images. With an essay by Shoji Yamagishi, it showcases Moriyama’s signature are-bure-boke (rough, blurry, out-of-focus) style, exploring fleeting moments of street life, desire, and existential drift in post-war Japan. A cornerstone of Japanese avant-garde photography.
