<b>A new trade publication of <i>Before Easter After</i>, originally published in a limited edition at $1,000.</b> <p/>Hundreds of rarely seen images by legendary photographer Lynn Goldsmith offer an intimate portrait of rock 'n' roll icon Patti Smith during a transformative moment in her career. Images of Smith performing on stage combine with candid behind-the-scenes photographs and striking studio shoots to create a deeply personal look at the singer during her rise to fame. The photographs include Smith's life-changing accident while on tour in 1977 and the aftermath, as well as closeup, empathetic portraits that reveal Smith's self-assurance, her defiance of cultural norms, and her effortless poise. This poignant visual narrative is punctuated throughout by Smith's original poetry and song lyrics. <p/>This book is both a glimpse into a fabled time in music history, documenting a young artist creating what turned out to be a revolutionary work, as well as a celebration of an enduring partnership between two close friends who continue to be creative collaborators to this day.<br><br><b>Author:</b> Patti Smith<br><b>Publisher:</b> Rizzoli International Publications<br><b>Published:</b> 10/08/2024<br><b>Pages:</b> 296<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Hardcover<br><b>Weight:</b> 1.25lbs<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9780847874088
