This book was very well done. There was a lot of thought put into the photographs. The main subject, Donna was going through extreme chemotherapy and the photgraph captures the pain that she was enduring. It is definitely worth your time and your money. I would definitely recommend this book to lovers of photography.
A different Bryan Adams July 4, 2000 7 out of 9 found this review helpful
The coverphoto is impressing and striking: a woman who lost her hair due to chemo, because she had cancer. She lost her battle against this horrible disease. She was a close friend of Bryan's and he dedicated his photobook to her. He photographed only women: celebrities like Shania Twain or Winona Ryder, but also the common girl. The photos are kept black and white and I think, if you take pictures of people, you get the most astonishing result only with black and white. It's a wonderful book.
