Riassunto

Brave New Burma is an intimate portrait in words and pictures of a country finally emerging from decades of dictatorship, isolation, and fear. Nic Dunlop documents the plight of the people of Burma, from the front lines of the ongoing civil war to deceptively tranquil cities firmly under military control, a secretive and brutal world.

Recensione:

'Stunning ... a landmark publication.' --Fergal Keane, BBC correspondent and author

'The work is outstanding. The dark grace of Nic's pictures from Burma expose the slave labour that continues to this day and illuminates the heroism of Aung San Suu Kyi and her pro-democracy comrades.' --John Pilger

'A clear winner... the haunting black-and-white pictures are a blistering indictment of the misery and tragedy inflicted by decades of Burmese military rule.' --Wall Street Journal
