For the project, Gossage employed a custom telephoto lens and 6000 ASA film to shoot the area around the Berlin Wall in near-total blackness, capturing the dark atmosphere of a divided city. This new facsimile edition of \u003ci\u003eLAMF\u003c\/i\u003e, made in close collaboration with the photographer, features an expanded edit of 44 images (twice as many as the original) and a new interview with Gossage about the book's genesis and his long affinity for Berlin, which is also the subject of his acclaimed books \u003ci\u003eStadt des Schwarz\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eBerlin in the Time of the Wall\u003c\/i\u003e. The result is both a masterpiece of the photobook medium and a moving artifact of Cold War history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Gossage\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1738901394\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781738901395\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Magic Hour Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/14\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"John Gossage","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48242039062783,"sku":"9781738901395","price":70.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_62faf709-4a76-40e8-8c4b-5516fdef4ac7.jpg?v=1772657199","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/john-gossage-john-gossage-9781738901395","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
