The shops

documentary heritage
  • Description

    "A portrait of New Zealand shops - disappearing, sad, beautiful, comic, lonesome, dirt poor, rich in spirit - by writer Steve Braunias and photographer Peter Black. In 44 colour images and an essay that combines intensely personal memoir with reflections on how the online and stripmall revolution has created ghost towns, The Shops is a tender, striking work of art by two of our most acclaimed artists"--Back cover.
