This review is from: My Wife (Hardcover)

There are some great photos in here and then some so-so ones. I found that flipping through this book became boring. After a while, seeing the same woman with her legs around her ears starts to get old. I guess that's what marriage is all about, but I'm not married to her. My real complaint is the over abundance of simaler images. Some of these pictures are better than the others. She's a beautiful woman, but less is more.

3.0 out of 5 stars A more accurate title: "My Wife's Vagina", July 9, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: My Wife (Hardcover)

Hegre's wife is attractive, and many pictures in this book are nicely done. He has done a good job of recording her great body and spirited personality. There is a great variety of locations and situations, a little of everything, and the book is well printed.

But too many of the photographs are tiresome repetitions of her shaved vagina. OK, sure, it is attractive and all that, but this book would have been stronger if about half of the vag pictures remained sealed in a box at the Hegre's home, and not been included in this book.

This review is from: My Wife (Hardcover)

If I were asked to use one word to describe this book it would be "intimate". As the title implies, this books is a collection of images of Hegre's wife. Some of the photography is clearly "museum quality", but there are also red-eyed snapshots here. There is something almost voyeuristic about seeing Hegre's wife in so many everyday scenarios.

If someone wanted to create an exact duplicate of Hegre's wife, this book would give them the blueprint to work from.
