Anton Corbijns new U2 book

[beli]

I was searching through Dymocks (an Australian bookshop) online and came across this entry:

PHOTOGRAPHS 1982 2004 U2&1 - $275.00
CORBIJN A
ISBN 3829601530
Format Hardback
Category Music

with the notation "availability to be confirmed"

I cant find it on amazon.com nor amazon.co.uk. Does anyone know when this book is coming out?

Mind you its pretty pricey. (The price is in Australian dollars)

Indeed,

That seems like a lot of money tho ($194 USD if I converted correctly)

 

[Popmartijn]

It was 78 euros on one of the sites I checked (which is about 80 - 85 USD)

Still too much.

Unless Anton comes over to my house and personally signs it.

Which would be fine.


I would bake him a cake.

lol that's good

the quality of the book, pics has gotta be top notch to be that pricey. i really thought the four 5 one design book was cool and ran great colors. it included enough suprises for the casual to semi-obsessive fan who doesnt know their entire past. im hoping for something along those lines. maybe bono penning a song, edge when a guitar string breaks, outtakes from joshua tree shoots, candid shots from the filming of 'streets' when the cops came in...thatd be sweet!!!

I would guess the production of the book will be first class. If you read Antons web site theres a bit about a previous book and how he went to a smaller but high quality publisher rather than the usual paperback pulp publishers.

Oh alright. The two of you have convinced me.





(That was easy.)
