"England, My England" is a photobook by Magnum Photos photographer Chris Steele-Perkins, who continues to work in the UK. Born to a British father and a Burmese mother, Perkins began his career as a photographer while studying chemistry and psychology as a student. He has energetically covered civil wars and conflicts in Bangladesh, Africa, Central and South America, and the Middle East, while also continuously photographing urban issues such as subculture scenes in the UK. This book is a major work that compiles images taken with the themes of "English" and "England" throughout Perkins' career of more than 40 years. As the words "Youth" and "Poor" frequently appear in the captions, it is very interesting that it depicts a kind of "underbelly of Britain" as seen from the perspective of an outsider and immigrant, rather than the glamorous Britain of gentlemen and celebrities. Furthermore, it is a recommended book that will captivate you with its journalistic perspective, typical of a Magnum Photos member, and the profound works that contain diverse stories in a single image.
