中文简介：

1968年，摄影师安德斯•彼得森（Anders Petersen）在德国汉堡绳索街的一家潜水酒吧闲逛时，有人从他坐的桌子上抢走了他的相机并开始拍照。彼得森利用这个机会拍下了这个元凶，以及酒吧里其他杂七杂八的顾客，从而诞生了这本摄影书，记录了60年代末一个坚韧不拔的城市，也成为了彼得森传奇生涯的基石。这些照片已经成为其流派的经典，汤姆·怀兹（Tom Waits）还用了其中一张照片作为其传奇专辑《雨狗》的封面。这些照片坦率而真实，在今天依然备受欢迎。这本制作精良的再版书由怀兹撰写前言，是一本描绘社会边缘人的集体画像。

英文简介：

Photographer Anders Petersen was hanging out at a dive bar on the Reeperbahn in Hamburg in 1968 when someone grabbed his camera from the table where he was sitting and started taking pictures. Petersen used the opportunity to photograph the culprit―and the rest of the bar's motley crew of patrons. The resulting project is one of the most revered photobooks of all time, a celebration of a gritty city at the tail end of the sixties, and the cornerstone of Petersen's storied career. The images have become classics of their genre; Tom Waits used one for the cover of his legendary album Rain Dogs. Their candidness and authenticity remain as eloquent today as when they were first published in 1978. This sumptuously produced reissue features a new foreword by Waits, and is certain to find a new audience, who will appreciate the stunning analog photography and its elegiac collective portrait of the fringes of society.
