"Shinsekai Monogatari (Signed)" is a collection of works by Japanese photographer Kazuo Kitai (1944-). Kitai has captured the everyday lives and social changes of ordinary people in postwar Japan with a calm and intimate perspective. He is known for his documentary work that captures the era and deeply examines human life, as seen in his masterpieces such as "To the Village" and "A Landscape I Once Saw." This book is a series set in Shinsekai, Osaka, meticulously capturing the people and scenery of Osaka's entertainment district, where the atmosphere of the Showa era still lingers. Kitai's camera captures the passion and joy of life in the rich tones of monochrome, from the crowds gazing up at Tsutenkaku Tower to men lingering in the alleys to the flickering lights of amusement parks and izakayas. A record of human existence thriving in the gaps between eras, this is one of Kitai's most emotionally charged works. Signed by the photographer .
