The Places We Live

by Jonas Bendiksen

The Places We Live Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Book News Annotation:

This collection of photographs focuses primarily on poverty-stricken and densely-populated neighborhoods all over the world, underlining the need for compassion and empathy from those who live comfortably in developed nations. Bendiksen, a noted photographer and journalist, spent three years compiling images from Nairobi, Mumbai, Jakarta and Caracas to demonstrate the plight of those who must live in a sea of humans with little hope for expressing personal freedom or individuality. Stories and anecdotes from residents of these urban landscapes add authenticity and desperation to the startling images. Distributed by Distributed Art Publishers.
