You will struggle to find a copy, but here are some links that might help anyone curious:
Chris Killip where are you?
Thatcher 'no society' quote
Wikipedia on the 1984 Miners' strike
Get Carter: North East location tour
The image below (the first in the book) of the painter's blatant artistic licence clearly states Killip's intention - to create a fiction - one that serves his own truth. Objectivity gives way to subjectivity.
Your comments would be appreciated.
