“An extraordinarily amusing pleasure” (choices), “... a big, fat thank-you to Finland” (DE:BUG)—those were some of the raving reviews of Janne Lehtinen’s first project, Sacred Bird. The volume, which documents the ridiculous attempts at flight made by the Finnish photographer, was awarded the German Photo Book Prize in 2005.
 
In his new autobiographical project, Lehtinen takes us on a journey to his childhood home and other sites of his youth. Here in Lehtiskylä, the village in the south of Finland where he was born, he took the splendid photograph for our Collector’s Edition—an absolute must, not just for Lehtinen fans, but also for Beetle fans!
 
You will learn more about the meaning of the mysterious title of the edition, Revenge, in the brief family histories accompanying the photographs in this book.
