Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Text by Ian Walker A long overdue re-issue of Martin Parr's classic 1986 work that revolutionised documentary photography in Britain. An extraordinary study of the decaying holiday resort of New Brighton, it presents a view of the town and its holidaymakers in a way that was new, unique and deeply disturbing. A sharp and bitter satire on all that was wrong with the market economy of the Thatcher years.
