The new edition of Salinger's ever-relevant series of 1980s and '90s teenagers in their bedrooms

Bedrooms contain the past, the present and the future; they are sites of continual transformation. Popular culture and fashion continually change and recycle. While specific objects of decor change over time, teenagers' bedrooms are still private sanctuaries: spaces for safely experimenting during a time in life when one is forming and expressing ever-evolving identities.

Upon its release in 1995, Adrienne Salinger's book In My Room was an immediate success, selling nearly 24,000 copies in its first few years. The continued popularity of this work made in the '80s and '90s is curious. However, over the nearly 30 years since, and especially in the most recent decade of social media, the work's appeal has grown tremendously. In some cases, the work evokes nostalgia, but not primarily so. Adrienne Salinger hears from current teenagers often; many send her pictures of their bedrooms today. Social media encourages users to endlessly "rebrand" their identities, creating idealized fantasies, striving for perfection. These photographs are not about perfection. They give voice to the contradictions of our identities.

Hundreds of print and online articles, interviews and features on In My Room have been published and the work has been exhibited at museums all around the world. Long out of print and now considered a classic, with only a rare few available on the secondary market, the book returns in a new expanded edition as Teenagers in Their Bedrooms. With 26 additional photographs, this treasure is made available once more to new audiences.
Adrienne Salinger has published three photobooks: In My Room (1995), Living Solo (1999) and Middle Aged Men (2007). She is Regents Professor Emerita at the University of New Mexico.

Great book!
Format: Paperback
This is one of the best books I've read recently! If you want to stretch your faith and relationship with God this book will do it! The reading is easy and the examples are spot on. The activations, if you really press in and do them, are amazing! I thought I had a hard time hearing the Lord, but the things that came to my mind while talking to Jesus, have changed me and my relationship with Him!

Wow! Did not realize how much I didn’t see in so many interaction.
I read this book to prepare me to join leadership with our church. I had no idea what I was in for until reading this book. So many important parts to being a leader and being led. Most of all, looking for ways to follow Jesus and point others there to in a healthy, honor cultures was really eye opening for me.

One of the most incredible books I've read in years on this topic
Format: Paperback
It really was transformative and life changing. The lessons taught will help anyone who works with people (human beings) on planet earth. Don't think you're a leader? Well we all have people in our lives that we influence and this is about taking what Danny teaches and making it practical. It'll help so many.

Learning To Lead Looks Like This!
One of the greatest opportunities for today’s church is the value it can offer to all spheres of society by developing leaders. Carla’s book ‘The Pathway to Powerful: Learning to Lead a Courageous, Connected Culture’ offers a first-hand account of what we can DO and expect as we endeavor to lead, wherever we are.
