"A Fire at the Edge of the Eye... A Collection of Criticism 1965-1977 (With OBI)" is a collection of works by Takuma Nakahira, one of Japan's leading postwar photographers. While "Urban Landscape Encyclopedia," published by Getsuyosha in 2011, was a collection of photographs Nakahira published in magazines between 1964 and 1982, this book is a collection of his critical works published between 1965 and 1977, the year he fell ill. Nakahira, who was also an editor, critic, and photography commentator, wrote prose that, while sometimes difficult to understand, is sharp and trenchant. The contents of this book are: "1. What is contemporaneity? (1965-1970)", "2. Escaping from images (1970-1971)", "3. The illusion of records (1971-1973)", "4. Why a botanical encyclopedia? (1973-1975)", and "The end of the gaze (1976-1977)". It is a large work with a total of over 500 pages. Comes with a dust jacket.
