A great book to kick back with is Yoshi Kametani's sultry new collection of personal photographs taken in Brixton - pictures of friends eating, smoking, showering, playing cards and hanging out. With a penchant for experimentation, the artist has deconstructed his images into their CMYK elements, and then superimposed the layers, resulting in a tantalising take on the thresholds of memory. Every time you feel you might be edging towards some kind of truth, Kametani pulls it away again.
Trying for a baby? Juergen Teller takes up the ol' legs-in-the-air fertility trick-slash-myth, documenting the photographer's wife in a series of nude performances in the charming rooms of the Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni on Lake Como. It is a book of both style and substance, provoking surprising questions about the fragile mysteries of life, love and superstition. Teller. Forever.
Sipping on coffee has never felt like such a whirlwind adventure as it does in... In this sublime and transporting title, Roger Eberhard has reimagined the very Swiss tradition of coffee creamer lids, which picture all manner of exotic cliches and bucket list fantasies. Blown right up, these landscapes become strange and abstract, reminiscent of pointillist paintings and Pop. A shout-out to the reflective cover, which reminds us that seduction begins before page one.
