The age of twelve brings tremendous excitement and social possibilities; it is a trying time as well, caught between childhood and adulthood, when the difference is not entirely understood. As Ann Beattie writes in her perceptive introduction maintained from the 1988 original publication, \"These girls still exist in an innocent world in which a pose is only a pose--what adults make of that pose may be the issue.\" The consequences of this misunderstanding can be real: destitution, abuse, unwanted pregnancy. Within this book of portraits, many of which are accompanied by writings of the artist, the young women in Mann's unflinching large-format photographs, however, are not victims. They return the viewer's gaze with a disturbing equanimity. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis reissue of \u003ci\u003eAt Twelve\u003c\/i\u003e has been printed using new scans and separations from Mann's prints, which were taken with an 8-by-10-inch view camera, rendering them with a quality true to the original edition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sally Mann, Sally Mann (Commentaries by), Ann Beattie (Introduction by)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Aperture\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781597114585\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 56\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 9.60w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eBeattie, Ann:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cb\u003eAnn Beattie\u003c\/b\u003e has been included in four O.
