This book contains Wessel’s edit of these pictures and is a record of American leisure at this time: of surf, sand and inexhaustible pleasure-seekers. Yet Wessel equally explores the contradictions of Waikiki – concrete hotels invading pristine beaches, culture encroaching on nature. Despite all the fun in the sun, Wessel’s subjects are often distanced and dissatisfied, suggesting an underlying unease.","brand":"Steidl Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49423841624407,"sku":"9783869303000","price":999.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/henry-wessel-waikiki-9783869303000","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
