First Italian edition of this milestone of reportage photography: the book by Robert Frank (Zurich 1924-Inverness 2019) changed the history of photography forever. Jack Kerouac wrote in the foreword of the book, published in the United States by Grove Press: . "That crazy feeling in America, when the sun beats down on the streets and you hear the music of a jukebox or that of a passing funeral". Between 1955 and 1956, young Frank embarked on a road trip on the other side of the American dream with the money from the Guggenheim Foundation scholarship in his pocket, for the first time assigned to a European photographer, and with his lens he immortalized the reality of the American territory through faces, scenes, shops, squares, streets with random appearances and blurry, blurry images, operating a real revolution in the photographic language of reportage, overturning the way of understanding and constructing photography.
