A continuation of the review that reads: Erin found a perfect partner in crime in Tosh Berman who wrote the accompanying text. Not only is he willing to scratch that vulnerable surface but his observations and questions regarding the photos go in such intriguing and unexpected directions. He imagines the possible back stories, the cultural meaning, and the sexual tensions between the assailant and the target of mishap. Not only does he explore the "private relationship" between the parties involved in the scenario but also who is the audience? Who is taking the photo? Who is directing the scene? Who gets to see these photos? How innocent is all of this and how complicit are we the viewers/voyeurs? Tosh is like Alice who doesn't think twice about jumping down that mysterious rabbit hole and finding that things are curiouser and curiouser. I like to think that in a hundred years from now someone will find a copy of this book in a wonderful used bookstore of the future, and they will wonder what the hell is this all about.
