5.0 out of 5 starsAlmost painfully moving
By M. Neustadt on January 17, 2013
Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
This book is truly exquisite as well as exquisitely produced. The photographs span a rather long period - from the mid-70s to the mid-80s - and document Nan Goldin's group of friends and lovers. The photographs are divided topically: one section containing, for example, all portraits of women, another, scenes of strife. The photographs are subtle and gorgeous and repay repeated viewing to catch the many wonderful details. The forward and afterword are both movingly and wonderfully written. Thanks to those who revived this project and put it into such wonderful book form. Anyone interested in photography of the last thirty years will certainly want to own a copy.

5.0 out of 5 starsThe Ballad of Sexual Dependency is beautiful.
By Lance Larson on March 12, 2013
Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
The collection of memories that Ms. Goldin has are heartbreaking but yet at the same time sweet. Goldin finds a positive in every negative. She dedicated the book to her deceased sister who committed suicide many decades ago. Join Nan Goldin by buying this book. I recommend The Ballad of Sexual Dependency for all photography major and even the general public because it's very persuasive.

5.0 out of 5 starsOne of the Best Contemporary Photographers Alive
By Kim L VINE VOICE on June 18, 2013
Format: Hardcover
I've been a fan of Nan Goldin's work for years and had the pleasure of hearing her speak at the Look3 photo fest in Charlottesvile, VA, in 2011. If I had to pick only one Nan Goldin book for the photo fan's library it would be this one. Her work is amazing. It's intimate, touching, and at times heartbreaking. You can see she put her heart in this and the subjects are her friends and lovers. Pick this up and see why she truly is one of the best photographers of our time.

The most iconic work by Nan Goldin (though The Devil's Playground is very important too) – a must for any Goldin fan.
