edition sold outA celebrated writer and journalist publishes his first album of photographs, the artistic harvest of his many sojourns in Africa. It contains experiences from the more than forty years since he first went there. This album is a document constructed of stunning photographs. In 2001 it took honors at the Polish Association of Book Publishers Competition for Most Beautiful Books of the Year and the Arkady Fiedler Award. It has been published in Spanish and Italian editions.
"The album is partly a collection of his own illustrations to his journalism, and partly a commentary to and extension of Kapu¶ciński’s books on Africa. For all who try to take pictures, this beautifully produced book can also be a subtle handbook uncovering certain secrets of photography."
Maja Wolny, Polityka, 6/2001
