The Revision: Paradise Kiss

Ai Yazawa’s Paradise Kiss is more than 850 pages and the most surprising part is how little time passes. From the beginning to the end (minus an epilogue), it really only takes place over about a month. Paradise Kiss packs in so much, it still feels like an intense epic.

Gel plate print of a photo I took of the Markel Building in Richmond. This was a simple one but turned out exactly how I wanted. (The background is slightly metallic.)
