About This Item
(HETHERINGTON, TIM). Hetherington, Tim. Introduction by Sebastian Junger. INFIDEL - FIRST EDITION SIGNED BY TIM HETHERINGTON. Signed by the Photographer. London: Chris Boot Ltd., 2010. First Edition. 8vo. Flexible Boards with Pastedown. Photography Monograph. Fine/No Jacket - As Issued. 240pp, profusely illustrated in color and b&w. Designed by SMITH. "Infidel" is an intimate portrait of a single U.S. platoon assigned to an outpost in the Korengal Valley - an area considered one of the most dangerous Afghan postings in the war against the Taliban - but it is as much about love and male vulnerability as it is about bravery and war. Embedded with writer Sebastian Junger, and shooting over the course of one year, the late photographer Tim Hetherington made a series of images that prove surprisingly tender in their depiction of camaraderie and vulnerability. Alongside revealing interviews with Hetherington's subjects and an introduction by Junger (with whom Hetherington co-directed the award-winning film "Restrepo" about the work of the battalion), the book is also illustrated with graphics of the tattoos the soldiers gave each other in the camp. The title is taken from the tattoo the men adopted as a badge of their comradeship. Warm, moving and full of humor, this book is a tribute to the "rough men ready to do violence on our behalf" and a provocative contribution to the documentation of war in our time". A brand new, most handsome example of the exceedingly uncommon 2010 first edition of this gritty modern classic (cited on page 208 of Martin Parr and Gerry Badger's "The Photobook: A History Volume III") additionally SIGNED "Tim Hetherington" in black ink on the title page at our shop during one of the photographer's visits. 1-905712-18-9 Inventory Number: 026015
