I have been to Brighton three times in my whole entire life. I know that there is a beach and some nice shopping places. There is also that pavilion building. I can’t even remember what it was for. Apparently it has become quite modern and ‘yuppie-fied’ since Londoners flocked down to live in the place. I put the book together with texts extracted from the original book (written by Julie Burchill) and images of British seaside taken by Marin Parr and Jon Nicholson. They are not particularly pretty pictures but that is how I imagine Brighton to be. There is something melancholic and sad about the British seaside.
