Subject: The book is about a woman around the age of 40. She looks like she doesn't take good care of herself: her hair is greasy, her skin is bad and her apartment is messy. The images of the photographer show the woman in her apartment and the apartment itself which is full of clothes which seem to be cheap and from second hand stores.
