<\/p>\n

An autobiographical survey of adolescent sexuality, counterculture, and survival.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Originally self-published in 1983, “Teenage Lust”<\/strong> stands as the explosive, uncompromising second major photobook by legendary American photographer and filmmaker Larry Clark. Shifting his artistic lens from the raw substance abuse of his seminal work Tulsa<\/em> toward the complex landscapes of teenage obsession, freedom, and rebellion, Clark provides an unfiltered insider’s view into a generation choosing to drop out of the traditional American Dream.<\/p>\n

The book takes readers on a non-judgmental, deeply intimate journey spanning over thirty years of counterculture history. It seamlessly juxtaposes Clark’s own childhood family snapshots in Oklahoma with the volatile worlds of 1960s East Village “Summer of Love” hippies, skinny-dipping teens in New Mexico, and the harrowing realities of young street hustlers and runaway youth in New York City’s Times Square during the early 1980s.<\/p>\n

Signed on title page by Larry Clark.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Condition:<\/strong> VG+ in\u00a0 wraps, lightly sunned on all outside edges of the wraps, spine shows light wear. [4.2]<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
