1.High Voltage TattooHigh Voltage Tattoo
from Collins Design
Price: £9.00

Customer Review:
I cannot understand how other reviewers can praise the photos in this book as the quality is really lousy. Many have a colour cast; most have lousy contrast due to completely ignoring lighting. And some are even out of focus. When you are creating a book where photos are the main contents, this... more info

2.Lizzie Siddal: The Tragedy of a Pre-Raphaelite SupermodelLizzie Siddal: The Tragedy of a Pre-Raphaelite Supermodel
from Andre Deutsch Ltd
Price: £6.62

Customer Review:
Lizzie Siddall-the tragedy of a Pre-Raphaelite supermodel is a compelling study of the life of this girl, who was discovered by chance, and became a model for several of the artists in the PRB. She was ultimately so disillusioned with marriage to Rossetti that she committed suicide at the age of 32.

3.Rare Bird of Fashion: The Irreverent Iris ApfelRare Bird of Fashion: The Irreverent Iris Apfel
from Thames & Hudson
Price: £16.19

Customer Review:
Iris Apfel is a great girl. Her personality shines through her sparky introduction. Her clothes and accessories are terrific. But it is the combination of these items and the panache with which she wears them that makes the whole package unique. I loved this book and am sorry I didn't buy it... more info

4.Winifred NicholsonWinifred Nicholson
from Lund Humphries
Price: £23.10

Customer Review:
Even if you feel that you are familiar with the work of Winifred Nicholson there will probably be many paintings in this comprehensive book that you will not have seen. If you don't know her work you will be entranced by this book as an introduction to her work. Either way you need to buy it. There... more info

5.Rodinsky s RoomRodinsky's Room
from Granta Books
Price: £3.14

Customer Review:
This type of search after the past always attracts me, and it starts well. But there should have been a warning about the extreme density of Iain Sinclair's prose. He's pretty well known as a writer, so maybe it's my fault that I didn't know.
His prose is dense, with lots of random... more info

7.Love Me or Kill Me: Sarah Kane and the Theatre of Extremes (Theatre: Theory, Practice, Performance)Love Me or Kill Me: Sarah Kane and the Theatre of Extremes (Theatre: Theory, Practice, Performance)
from Manchester University Press
Price: £12.74

Customer Review:
No doubt Sarah Kane will attract much attention from students over the next few years as the forerunner of the 'in yer face' sensibility and one of the least studied and most talked about playwrights of the 20th century. Thankfully Sauders' comprehensive study is a very useful work to fill the... more info

8.Glamour: Women, History, FeminismGlamour: Women, History, Feminism
from Zed Books Ltd
Price: £14.49

Customer Review:
This book is obviously well researched and put together, but on reading through it, I can't help but think it is missing a commentary, argument, or 'author voice' to set all those facts within a timeline (or to back up a social theory or world view).
The book becomes less precise when it... more info

10.The Supergirls: Fashion, Feminism, Fantasy, and the History of Comic Book HeroinesThe Supergirls: Fashion, Feminism, Fantasy, and the History of Comic Book Heroines
from Exterminating Angel Press
Price: £5.82

Customer Review:
This is a tale of unfolding public fantasy. It's the evolution of female heroes through the decades, which ties in with developments in fashion, film, politics and music. In exploring the comic books, Madrid touches off light-shows of memories and associations. It's fascinating and playful.
