"Things, people and events harbor within them more than we can know or understand, until looked at with slight inflection. If you get it right, you don't have to explain."-John Gossage. With this characteristic off-kilter curiosity John Gossage continues his loving yet critical, generous yet ironic vision of America; I Love You So Much!!!!!!!!! is the fourth book in his ongoing series on this theme, following Should Nature Change (2019), Jack Wilson's Waltz (2019) and The Nicknames of Citizens (2020), all published by Steidl. Gossage is as always open to the wonders of the everyday, be he making a portrait of a young artist or a tree; and he relishes the poetry of pattern in his subjects-the ripples of a tablecloth, a grid of tiles, the serpentine curls of an electrical cord. The title of the book (with not one exclamation mark too few) is taken from a handwritten inscription Gossage found on an old but beloved car in Rochester, Minnesota, for him a moment of gritty glory: "It read like an afterlife, a murmur of its inhabitants long after they had parked the car and left."

John Gossage, born in New York in 1946 and now residing in Washington, D.C., studied with Lisette Model and Alexey Brodovitch in 1960–61. In the late 1960s he learned Telecaster guitar from Roy Buchanan and Danny Gatton, leaving professional music in 1973 to return to photography. Between 1974 and 1990 Gossage exhibited at Leo Castelli Gallery in New York; since 1990 he has concentrated almost exclusively on publications, producing over 20 books. Steidl has published his The Thirty-Two Inch Ruler (2010), Looking up Ben James – A Fable (2018), Should Nature Change (2019), Jack Wilson’s Waltz (2019) and The Nicknames of Citizens (2020).
