I'm always looking to add to my collection of photography monographs and would love to hear about recent purchases you've made that you can recommend. Here's some of mine:

Sergio Larrain (Aperture, 2013)
Sergio Larrain: Valparaíso (Aperture, 2017)
Eli Reed: A Long Walk Home (University of Texas Press, 2015)
The Radical Camera: New York's Photo League, 1936-1951 (Yale University Press, 2011) (*)
Jim Marshall: Show Me the Picture: Images and Stories from a Photography Legend (Chronicle Books, 2019)

(*) OK, not technically a monograph.

Some of my favs, that I come back to over and over again, though your taste may differ.
Some of these are relatively inexpensive, but they provided me with joy of spirit...
