Book of the Week The Last Resort by Martin Parr The Last Resort features Martin Parr’s images of New Brighton, United Kingdom, a dilapidated seaside resort on the Wirral Peninsula, a few miles from Liverpool. The work was highly controversial when published in 1985, recognizing Parr for his satirical observations of society, in saturated color. | Join the Fray © Marilyn Silverstone / Magnum Photos What do you think of these photos?
