From the photographer behind Westography and Suburbia.The past doesn't disappear. It leaves its traces everywhere. - Christos TsiolkasFrom West Brunswick to Reservoir, Fitzroy to Hadfield, Warren Kirk turns his keen eye upon the streets, buildings, and inhabitants of Melbourne's northern suburbs, which are as iconic as they are rapidly changing. Both a tribute to the things we remember and a reminder to look anew at the world around us, the photos in Northside are a triumph of craft from an artist who invites us to really see.

Al-Khatat's poetry is a poignant knife. His words sing off of the page into your heart with the voice of a blade.-- Adam Levon Brown Ahmad Al-Khatat is one of my favorite poets! I have found no one else who is as masterful at building a poem about the most sad and disastrous circumstances, and yet frame it with such lovely phrasing, so that one is drawn to the poem again and again. May he long continue his magnificent constructions.-- Linda Imbler

PERRY KNOPPERT - born in The Hague, 1975 - provides evidence that no matter how monotonous everyday life may be, it is better than social isolation. He also documents his own home with flowers on a windowsill or a child lying in bed reading. Knoppert was as isolated as the rest of us, observing his children and objects from the safety of his own home, except when he went outside to document the state of affairs in public spaces.We follow his journey through the streets and alleys of the seemingly unpopulated city. Knoppert watches the arrival of ambulances and comes across mattresses left behind by the homeless. Traces and shadows of people. Traces of people who were just there and now they are not. The remains of the people or their belongings. Empty buses, empty trains, the metro closed. Everything that was part of our daily lives is missing. Knoppert walked the streets of a major city in central Europe that serves as the de facto capital of the European Union. With a child's curiosity witnessed the quarantine with wonder.IN THE TIME OF CORONA consists of photographs taken in Brussels during the first period of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Magdalena Solé first visited Cuba in 2011 and has returned every year since, enchanted by the place and the people who live in this slender stretch of land. Her photographs reveal the stirrings of transformation, however subtle and hard to see, and reflect a Cuba that is both tough and vulnerable. Cuba hasta siempre consists of more than 150 full-color photographs taken by Solé, accompanied by a foreword written by Time columnist and travel writer Pico Iyer. With minimal text, this book offers a view of Cuba beyond the tourist trade and the wealthy upper class. The photographs portray everyday settings and people engaged in daily tasks. A visual encounter with magical realism, this collection constructs an atmosphere of pervasive timelessness, a photographic time capsule. Memorabilia and objects from Cuba's revolutionary past linger in the present, while life goes on. These soulful images offer a new visual perspective on Cuba past and present. The Wall Street Journal called Solé's images "lushly colorful," "formally striking," "restless," and "electrify[ing].

What is the first thing you think of when you hear the word: "California"? The answer is as plain as the day - ocean, golden sand, palm trees, wind in the hair, relaxed and smiling people. But, it's not that simple, California is not just fun by the beach. It is much more interesting than just bright leaflets made for tourists.If you want to get acquainted with "Other California", it's better to start with the capital - Sacramento. Sacramento is the oldest city in California, which is, unfairly, overshadowed by more popular cities. In Spanish Sacramento means "mystery". Strolling along the old city, you find out that this mystery is hidden deep in the history. A perfect place with the atmosphere of romantic and wild West. Everything here - houses, streets, wooden sidewalks - looks like the decoration of the western. There are cowboys and sheriffs, Indians and gangsters, Buffalo Bill, gold rush, taverns and saloons. Other than that, the city is pretty nice and quiet. It's a good place to relax and take a breath before big and important trip to the national parks.Speaking of the national parks, it's necessary to say that the word "park" shouldn't misinform you. These are not small pieces of land, filled with trees and surrounded by a fence. These are truly massive natural reservations.One of the most famous, that must be seen the first are Sequoia and Yosemite. The incorporated harmony of the nature and the human with untouched wild beauty being preserved by the effort of many people. This harmony probably is essential in relationships between human being and the world around him.In this book you will also learn about other unique nature places of California, such as Lake Tahoe and the legendary Death Valley.
