FUKUDA, Fumiaki et al. Dare to Stop Us: One Night Carnival.

(Tokyo): Daisan Shokan, 1979.  First edition.  Softcover. 25.8cm by 18.4cm.  Unpaginated. A raw and atmospheric document of late-1970s Japanese youth culture, One Night Carnival captures the rebellious energy of a generation teetering between post-war conformity and the rising tide of counterculture. Through stark black-and-white photography and fragmented narrative elements, Fukuda, Yuji Moriya, Kazutoshi Sumitomo, and Mutsuhito Fujio,  immerse the viewer in the nocturnal world of bosozoku biker gangs, city streets lit by halogen glare, and the performative swagger of adolescence on the edge, a “carnival” of noise, smoke, chrome, and speed.  This a very good copy in dust jacket.
