From Museum 52: "Waplington's photos here give a lovingly discordant view of a dysfunctional family, juxtaposing images of tenderness, depravity, happiness and aggression." Not only was this first book by Waplington published by the esteemed photobook publisher Aperture, the photographer was fortunate enough to have both legendary photographer Richard Avedon and noted writer on photography John Berger provide essays to accompany his images-an amazing achievement for a first publication.
