ON PHOTOGRAPHY - SUSAN SONTAG KARTONIERT (TB)

How do we see the world around us? The Penguin on Design series includes the works of creative
thinkers whose writings on art  design and the media have changed our vision forever.  Susan
Sontag's groundbreaking critique of photography asks forceful questions about the moral and
aesthetic issues surrounding this art form. Photographs are everywhere. They have the power to
shock  idealize or seduce  they create a sense of nostalgia and act as a memorial  and they can
be used as evidence against us or to identify us. In six incisive essays  Sontag examines the
ways in which we use these omnipresent images to manufacture a sense of reality and authority
in our lives.
