Review from Waterstones Bookshop (2019):
First published in 1961 and boasting exquisite black and white photography from Laelia Goehr, Faces prizes its author’s gloriously idiosyncratic descriptions over dry facts and figures. Wistful, charming and eccentric, this attractive volume is the perfect gift for anybody crazy about canines.
from the inside cover
’Suki is a tiger cub with an unusual upbringing. When she was born in the London Zoo in April 1963 her mother took no interest in her, and in fact Suki's twin died from neglect. So Suki was raised in the Animal Hospital and it is there that Laelia Goehr took the superb photographs which illustrate this book.
Elspeth Huxley tells Suki's story and at the same time adds a great deal more about tigers in general.
Only a dyed-in -a wool animal hater could resist this book.’
Laelia provided photographs for many other publications including Picture Post, Lilliput, The Observer, The Jewish Chronicle and the AJR (Association of Jewish Refugees)
Published in the AJR Published in the Times Dec. 1967
February 1958
Both these publications use Laelia’s photos for their covers
