Each bookstore will act as a concierge, recommending "the book you should read right now" to FASHION HEADLINE readers. Every Saturday, we will introduce books selected by Shelf, a Harajuku bookstore specializing in foreign books (3-7-4 Jingumae, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo).


■ PROVOKE Complete Reprint of 3 Volumes

This is a complete reprint of the legendary photography fanzine PROVOKE, founded in 1968 by Koji Taki, Takuma Nakahira, Yutaka Takanashi, and Takahiko Okada (with Daido Moriyama joining from the second issue onwards). This book, consisting of three volumes plus one supplementary volume, extracts manuscript data from all three issues of Provoke at the time, and faithfully reproduces the photographic images. The supplementary volume also translates the text into English and Chinese. In addition, the dust jacket that was said to have been included only with the second issue has been perfectly reproduced.
