Book description (eng):
„Prologue is a frank and unflinchingly honest documentation of Urszula Sleszynski‘s turbulent pregnancy and birth of the couples’ son. Last year I included Kamil’s handmade book Wolka as a special mention. I am so happy that I have been able to include Prologue on this years main list. As with Wolka, the written contributions from his wife Urszula have been indispensable – quite literally with Prologue, as it is her pregnancy that is being chronicled – and her nakedly honest commentary is easily as powerful as Kamil’s intimate photography. So justifiably, Prologue is credited to both of them. A truly formidable team to watch”.
