Photographer Deirdre O'Callaghan has produced an unsettling but
ultimately engaging document of the residents at Arlington House,
Europe's largest men's refuge. Built in the early 20th century for
intinerant Irish workers, many of the residents have been displaced
from their home country and suffer from mental and physical
disabilities, largely alcoholism. O'Callaghan's work reveals the
humour and companionship the men derive from their shared
experience, both in the refuge and on their sponsored return trips
to Ireland. This book won the ICP Infinity Award for best
publication in 2003 and the Rencontres de la Photographie D'Arles
award for best book. It was also included in the PDN Photography
Annual 2003 in the best books category
