As heavy as the visuals are, Munday's hand is light. The images speak for themselves. \u003ci\u003eDeep Sleep\u003c\/i\u003e is a powerful survey of thirty-three-year-old Munday's career thus far . . . It's rare that a monograph can be accurately described as important or necessary. \u003ci\u003eDon't Sleep,\u003c\/i\u003e however, fits the bill. Isolated from their origianl context and arranged by theme, Munday's images accumulate power—the power not just to move readers but to move them to action. \u003ci\u003eDon't Sleep\u003c\/i\u003e is the kind of book that burns through the coffee table it's left on.\"\u003cbr\u003e—\u003ci\u003eThe Paris Review\u003c\/i\u003e","brand":"Rizzoli International Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49528204919127,"sku":"9780847861620","price":23.75,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780847861620.jpg?v=1731870790","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/dont-sleep-9780847861620","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
