{"product_id":"michael-light-michael-light-9781934435304","title":"Michael Light: La Day, La Night","description":"The greater Los Angeles area covers 4,850 square miles--the size of a small country--and holds almost 18 million people. Perhaps America's largest human creation, it has been vilified and celebrated in equal measure since its inception. Is L.A. the face of the apocalypse, or an ultimate paradise at continent's edge--or both? With \u003ci\u003eLA Day\/LA Night\u003c\/i\u003e, photographer Michael Light continues his aerial examination of the arid American West by bringing together two opposing views of the city in a double-volume set. \u003ci\u003eLA Day\u003c\/i\u003e stares directly into the sun, which blasts the metropolis in a relentless and specific light. \u003ci\u003eLA Night\u003c\/i\u003e drifts over the city as it grows darker, and begins to resemble the starry sky vaulted above. Referencing Ed Ruscha, Peter Alexander, Julius Schulman and writers from Philip K. Dick to Raymond Chandler, \u003ci\u003eLA Day\/LA Night\u003c\/i\u003e continues Los Angeles's rich cultural legacy of examining its favorite schizophrenic subject--itself.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Light\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1934435309\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781934435304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Radius Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/30\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 72\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 16.40h x 10.40w x 0.70d","brand":"Michael Light","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47930904019199,"sku":"9781934435304","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3b29995b-42ae-44cd-8322-3008179f2d96.jpg?v=1766345083","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/michael-light-michael-light-9781934435304","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
