Introduction: What was it like to shop in these streets? -- The windows -- Stops along the way: David Hlynsky's communist (and decommunizing) shop windows / Martha Langford -- The next thing you buy / Jody Berland
Window-Shopping through the Iron Curtain presents a selection of more than 100 images of shop windows shot by David Hlynsky during four trips taken between 1986 and 1990 to Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Yugoslavia, Bulgaria, East Germany, and Moscow. Using a Hasselblad camera, Hlynsky captured the slow, routine moments of daily life on the streets and in the shop windows of crumbling Communist countries. --Publisher's description
