[Decoded] Book of the Month – Mischa Haller – Not Going Home (Photographs of Post Club Britain, 1998)

The Party’s Over. The club lights on. You heard about an afters. The sun’s just coming up and the light is a distraction. The main event is over, what next? Because you’re…NOT GOING HOME

With a foreword by journalist Kate Spicer, the book documents the Summer of 1998 as photographer Mischa Haller travelled across the UK to chronicle clubbers and partygoers in the small hours of the morning. The idea was to show what it felt like to be young, up all night in that slightly woozy, surreal state.

“I was interested in the time between the nightclub closing and people going home, those one or two hours when the rest of the world is asleep, but clubbers are carrying on. These moments hang in the memory – eating, smoking, chatting, making a fire on the beach or meeting someone new.” – Mischa Haller.
