The Burger Queen
back to that night in Provincetown some sixty-four years ago,
and Hirose���s collection soon stimulated my friends, Michael
Lennon and Christopher Busa. They, too, agreed that the work
is most special and should be put out as a book. These prints
have so much to say about the quality of nights in Provincetown
today. Indeed, such a book might yet be seen as its own kind
of counterpart to Joel Meyerowitz���s remarkable daytime shots
in his book Cape Light. We certainly had no doubt that this
work could bring pleasure to all the year-rounders, summer
inhabitants, and first-time day-trippers who fell under the
legitimate spell of our streets.
