Condition: Near fine – A superb copy

A dark, unsettling nude photo book by Yasuhiro Yoshioka, structured in six chapters that trace a symbolic fall — desire, ritual, domination, decay, rebirth.
Bodies in tension, mythic gestures, surreal staging, and a constant pull between pain and pleasure — Yoshioka pushes the early-70s avant-garde nude into a strange, spiritual, almost apocalyptic register.

A truly unique work from the golden age of experimental Japanese photobooks.
