Marlboro Nights - Documenting the ban on smoking in public (Paperback)

Brash, flash in-your-face photography exposing smokers in their last days of smoking indoors. This 8.5ins x 11ins book is packed full of flash-lit images of smouldering cigarettes. In uncompromising style, documentary photographer Garry Cook turns his attentions on smokers. With stark brutality he documents their final days as free smokers, before the ban on smoking in public came in to force in England on July 1, 2007. A 64-page full colour photo book. These photographs show smokers in bingo halls, pubs, clubs and nightclubs before the ban came in to force in the summer of 2007. The photographer then followed the smokers as they were forced to go outside. Shot across England, from London to Liverpool and including Blackpool, Manchester and Preston. Five years after the ban, these images offer a nostalgic look at a way of living never to be repeated.
