The Good Life by Richard Prince

The Good Life

by Richard Prince
Glenn Horowitz Bookseller · 2003 · Softbound quarto (4to)

The Good Life photographs the inventory of Glenn Horowitz Bookseller in East Hampton, New York, with an essay by John McWhinnie, who worked at the shop; it was published by Glenn Horowitz Bookseller in 2003 in an edition of 1,000 copies to coincide with an exhibition.

The softbound quarto turns Prince's camera on the shop's own stock and shelving, treating the rare-book trade as subject matter in the way he had elsewhere trained his lens on advertising and pulp fiction. McWhinnie's essay frames the book's title: the good life, as told through the working inventory of a bookseller.
