"David has always used photography as a seductive device, a sublimation of his desire. His pictures of people feel so tactile because one senses his desire to touch but never in an aggressive or insistent way. This book is a love sonnet American-style to the Boy as icon. David's eye is attuned to the subtle gesture, the moment of revelation when the psychological and the formal are perfectly wedded. He is intensely aware of the delicate balance of form in the shapes, the light, the relationship between person and place."
