It features black and white portraits of approximately 80 people working in various professions across Japan, including building demolition workers, shoemakers, bus guides, tattoo artists, and auto mechanics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"317\" data-start=\"162\"\u003eA distinctive feature of this book lies in the words accompanying the photographs. Alongside details about their careers, incomes, and feelings about their jobs, answers to casual questions like \"What did you have for breakfast this morning?\" are included, subtly outlining the contours of each person's life. Hashiguchi's approach, which views subjects not as special beings but as \"just a person in that place at that time,\" is consistent throughout both the photographs and the text.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"432\" data-start=\"319\"\u003eBy portraying people engaged in professions that rarely appear on the surface of media, along with the accumulation of their environments and time, the book visualizes the countless activities that support our society. It is a powerful document that conveys the reality of work and life while staying close to individual lives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-is-only-node=\"\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-end=\"489\" data-start=\"434\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e*This book is a \u003cstrong\u003ediscarded library book\u003c\/strong\u003e, so the cover has been \u003cstrong\u003elaminated (booker specification)\u003c\/strong\u003e.
