Luandino Vieira and Sven Asberg
Landet Ar Vart, Broder En Bok om Angola

Imprint: Helsingborg, Actuel Fotoliteratur, 1979
Edition: First Edition
Binding: Hardback

fine condition photographic glossy hardcover with black and white images portraying Angola in 1979. Text in Swedish and photographs by Sven Asberg.111 pages. Text by Angolan writer. Vieira was born in Lagoa de Furadouro, Ourém, Portugal and was Portuguese by birth and ethnicity, but his parents immigrated to Angola in 1938 and he grew up immersed in the African quarters (musseques) of Luanda. He wrote in the language unique to the musseque, a fusion of Kimbundu and Portuguese. He was devoted to Angolan independence, resulting in his arrest in 1961 after an interview with the BBC in which he disclosed secret lists of deserters from the Portuguese army fighting in Africa. He would remain in jail for eleven years. Vieira's works often followed the structure of the African oral narrative and dealt with the harsh realities of Portuguese rule in Angola. His best-known work was his early short story collection, Luuanda (1963), which received a Portuguese writers' literary award in 1965, though it was banned by the Portuguese government until 1974 due to its examination of the oppresiveness of the colonial administration in Angola..

Edition: First American Edition
Binding: Hardback , With Dust Jacket

In this wonderful oversize book are 127 stunning photographs of Great Basin buckaroos and ranches, in color and black and white. The images are sharply focused and the reproduction is vivid. Many photographs capture the terrain, whether dead flat under a vast open sky or mountainous. A lone figure on a horse may appear as a small detail in the picture, or men working cattle in various seasons may be the subject. Markus also turns his camera to individuals for portrait shots. And he captures close-up details of cowboy gear, tack, and clothing. At times, the breath-taking western vistas approach the character of (very good) calendar art. More often than not, however, Markus has an eye for the everyday and the wonder to be felt in ordinary passing moments. The golden light of a low sun reflects from the watery slurry in a corral onto the boards of a fence; a ranch interior shows a kitchen table with worn chairs and oil cloth in the foreground and in the next room a workshop with tools neatly arranged on the walls; a couple dances in a cowboy bar; two young cowboys have roped and tied a third one, who is getting head-dunked into a stream; in the retreating light from a clear evening sky, a cowboy steps from a tent and in the foreground, under a windmill, is a portable radio with its antenna extended.
