HAYASHI, Izumi. (Z).

(Tokyo): Takeshobo, 1996. First edition. Octavo. Gritty, grainy, hardcore photographs of the New York gay scene. The images are accompanied by text from Ryu Murakami, author of the cult novel “Almost transparent Blue.” A superb work, an unparalleled documentation, and very scarce to boot, OCLC records no copies in the U.S. and only one copy in Japan. This is a near fine copy in printed card covers with photo-illustrated dust jacket.
