Come, come ….” / Justice Shallow / Henry IV Part II / with love / Dick / 1993.' In his introduction, Avedon writes, ‘This book tracks the path of three crucial illusions in my life. The first section is about the illusion of laughter, and a young man’s discovery of the fine line between hilarity and panic. The second section is about the illusion of power. The third section is about the loss of all illusions... The interweaving of elements from my life’s work - out of chronology, as echoes and foreshadowings - is true, I think, to the inner shape of any life, but sometimes I’ve found the image of a later event in an early photograph, and once or twice a late picture was made in the grip of a lost emotion.’
