Richard Billingham: Ray's a Laugh

Featured spread is reproduced from Ray's a Laugh, the newest offering in Errata Editions' Books on Books series, which brings rare and out-of-print photography books back to life—page-for-page—in an accessible, affordable format. "Richard Billingham's close and startling portrayal of his father Ray, and mother Liz and his younger brother Jason was published in 1996 and has become a symbol of just how vital photography's narration of true experience can be," writes essayist Charlotte Cotton. A compelling a portrait of the family of an unemployed, chronic alcoholic, this book speaks volumes.
