So funny! An amazing book of portraits.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Autoportrait (Hardcover)
This book just made me laugh out loud. It's hard to believe that these are all portraits of one person. So many locations, so many 'costumes', so many personalities and yet all with the same fixed look. A great and unique book.

Parr's a genius,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Autoportrait (Hardcover)
For those of you - like me - gnashing your teeth trying to get your hands on all those out-of-print Martin Parr books, this one's a gem, and, thankfully, totally available. The 50 or so portraits of Parr, taken by studio photographers in exotic locales, are dripping with irony and loaded with critical comment on the role of the image in the early 21st. Parr achieves this impact in such a simple, straightforward manner, all you can say - through your uproarious laughter - is: this guy's a genius.
