Henrik Duncker’s visual proposal for a survival handbook. Witty observations and peculiar humour cooked into a nice small paperback. Pictures from the Moscow Millionaire Fair, the Finnish city named Nokia, the Latvian countryside and many other places. Covering about 10 years of European life, these picks from editorial assignments and Henrik’s personal work are carefully laid out in a photo essay about the limitations of human life. 82 colour photographs.
