Goldin charts the loss of innocence through barrooms and parties on the social periphery of New York's East Village and through the harrowing worlds of drugs and prostitution. The Ballad of Sexual Dependency is a visual diary chronicling the struggle for intimacy and understanding between friends, and lovers--collectively described by Nan Goldin as her "tribe." Her work describes a world that is visceral, charged, and seething with life . . . . As Goldin writes: "Real memory, which these pictures trigger, is an invocation of the color, smell, sound, and physical presence, the density and flavor of life."

    She just shatters me to tears. I had the chance to see her latest slideshow in Seduced: Art and Sex from Antiquity to Now at Barbican Centre in London lately, and I was overwhelmed by all that everything that we call love.
    This book is awesome, it's a graphical diary written in photographs which tells her daily life with her friends. Some of these pictures can be seen at Tate Modern. You don't need any explanation there. It's just what it is, life. In pictures.
