Examining themes of presence and absence, Camera Lucida delves into the nature of photographs – their content, their pull on the viewer, their intimacy. As Barthes contemplates a photograph of his mother as a child, the book becomes an exposition of his own mind. He was grieving for his mother at the time of writing. Strikingly personal, yet one of the most important early academic works on photography, Camera Lucida remains essential reading for anyone interested in the power of images.

Barthes investigation into the meaning of photographs is a seminal work of twentieth-century critical theory. This special Vintage Design Edition features a fold-out cover and stunning photography throughout. The book is an exploration of the relationship between the viewer and the photograph, as well as a personal reflection on grief and memory. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the power of images and the impact they have on our lives.
