    Well Foyles in London have 5 copies on sale, £60.

    It's nice, but I was hoping for a little more written content. I took a few photos which I'll stick up later.

    Has an intro by Patti Smith (as Faust mentioned) a photo by her son, and then runway photos of all her collections

        Shame. I can't understand the logic of the publishers

          I think it was more Ann's deference to Patti Smith. Personally, I think my article on Ann should've been there, since it's the most definitive thing that has been written on her. I am biased, of course.

          Anyway, my review of the book will be up Tuesday morning when the tome is out in the US market. Watch this space...

            You may be aware, but just in case the link to your full article seems to be broken on the link you furnished:

              at the risk of sounding like a complete teacher's pet, that is indeed the best Ann article Faust

                /\ Thank you. And thanks, Icarium. Here is the unbroken link as I originally wrote it for Haaretz newspaper in Israel, which A magazine borrowed with my permission, and Another borrowed without.

                She wants no part of the celebrity culture and isn't interested in trends. Her work draws inspiration from Marcel Duchamp, Bob Dylan and Oscar Wilde. Maybe that's why clothes designed by Ann Demeulemeester don't ever seem to go out of style.

                            Wow, glad to see how much excitement this has generated! Should've put "Rick Owens book" instead.
