Description:

Beautiful photography from all regions of South Africa is presented in this large-format Hoberman photo book. South Africa, as Gerald Hoberman saw it, is also a place where people hawk mielies on the streets, buy their provisions at local spaza shops and sell sizzling meat from open barbeques to passersby in the townships. He has captured a beautiful country and its people in a time of excitement and transformation. Yet he has retained an eye for that which does not change: old places and ancient customs upon which time seems to have no grasp. His photographs are a gift to the country he loves and all who have grown to cherish this land on the southern tip of Africa. This volume includes historically valuable photographs taken of the Bo-Kaap and District Six in the late 1960s and early 1970s, as well as photographs of Robben Island taken shortly after Nelson Mandela's release.
