""It was during dinner one evening just before the first
publication of my photographs that Helmut asked me what name I
intended to use. Jean Seberg and her Spanish boyfriend, Ricardo,
were among the guests and Ricardo...asked for an atlas which I
produced. He opened it to the map of Australia, asked for a pin,
told me to shut my eyes and aim. The pin landed at the center of
The Continent--Alice Springs. 'There's your name, ' he said."" The
photographs by and of Springs featured throughout the book--a
wonderful contemporary mix of personal snapshots and professional
portraits of creative figures including Yves Saint Laurent, Gore
Vidal, Balthus, Robert Mapplethorpe, Brassai, Nicole Kidman, and
Angelica Houston--illustrate the story of her life, in which the
houses and apartments where she has lived stand as milestones. Her
previously unpublished diary extracts and her new writing are lit
up by gentle irony, disarming honesty, and a photographer's eye for
telling detail. Intensely personal and engaging, this book charts a
remarkable 20th century woman's journey through life.
