Before, Easter, After Book

The Before, Easter, After Book from Taschen publishing documents a defining period in Patti Smith’s career through Lynn Goldsmith’s probing and empathetic lens. Riding on the critical success of Horses, Smith released the uncompromising Radio Ethiopia and, just two years later, Easter—her most successful and controversial album. Edging toward her concrete post in history, yet free of an established public identity, Goldsmith provided what Smith calls “an atmosphere where I could be myself, unleash my own potential.” 296 Pages Hardcover Clamshell Box Measures: W 10.6 x H 14.7 in Imported
