An intimate photographic study on the subject of divorce by Harry Borden and The School of Life.
On Divorce is the debut title in a new portrait photography series by The School of Life. The photographs and accompanying texts were captured and recorded over two years by British photographer Harry Borden (himself divorced). The images are a mirror that can help to correct some of what we think we know of divorce and pull us in a different direction: towards compassion, identification, curiosity, self-reflection and empathy.
The book features an introduction by The School of Life, which gives context to Borden’s photographic study.
Harry Borden is an acclaimed British portrait photographer. His work is regularly published in major news outlets and is part of the collection of The National Portrait Gallery in London. Previous publications include Single Dad (2021) and Survivor: A Portrait of the Survivors of the Holocaust (2017).
With empathy and compassion, On Divorce encourages us to completely re-evaluate our understanding of divorce through a series of compelling images and interviews. Produced in collaboration with celebrated British photographer Harry Borden, whose previous publications include Single Dad (2021) and Survivor: A Portrait of the Survivors of the Holocaust (2017).
