"Sawako: Unconditional Love (With Postcard D)" is a photobook by Japanese female photographer Misato Kuroda. In 2009, she won the Grand Prix at the Canon New Cosmos of Photography, considered a stepping stone for photographers, and the following year her first photobook, "Sawako," sold out instantly, making her an overnight sensation. Since her student days, she has created nude works of her lovers and men with whom she has had relationships, depicting "love," "emotion," and "sex" that arise from intimate closeness, and expressing the pure feelings of women directly through portraits and nudes. This book is a sequel to "Sawako," and consists of works depicting her best friend Sawako two years later. It is said to have been created with the theme of a woman in her late twenties who is consumed by love and is considered "foolish" by society. The following is an excerpt from the photographer's text: "There is no bright future for the love of a woman who has gone astray, and moreover, there is no telling when it will end. Yet they do not stop loving. The way they love men so selflessly and without expecting anything in return brings to mind the phrase 'unconditional love'." Limited first edition includes a special photo card (one of six types, randomly enclosed).
