Summary:

"En 1957, le grand photographe Brassaï, l'ami d'Henry Miller, n'a jamais rendu visite à l'Amérique! Pressé, cette année-là, par le magazine Holiday, qui lui donne carte blanche afin de photographier New York et la Louisiane, Brassaï se décide enfin. S'essayant au petit format et à la couleur, il ramènera de ce séjour de deux mois des images rendant compte de la vie urbaine intense propre aux grandes villes américaines, si différentes de son Paris de prédilection. Fidèle à la sensualité de son regard, toujours fasciné par les femmes, jouant de son humour aux accents surréalistes, Brassaï réalise un reportage totalement inédit, que ce livre et l'exposition qui l'accompagne nous font découvrir pour la toute première fois, en un vrai bonheur visuel jubilatoire." P. [4] of cover.
