The Faith of Graffiti

*The Faith of Graffiti* is the classic, definitive look at the birth of graffiti as an art form, pairing the fascinating 1974 essay by Norman Mailer--National Book Award and two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning author of *The Naked and the Dead* and *The Executioner's Song*--with the stunning, iconic photography of internationally acclaimed photographer Jon Naar. Back in print for the first time in three decades and expanded with 32 pages of additional photos, *The Faith of Graffiti* is a landmark in the history of street art: an essential, contemporary, and still-relevant meditation, in words and pictures, on the meaning of identity, property, and city life.
