"Tomasevic's images sear themselves into your consciousness. I have never seen such powerful imagery that not only captures the horror of war itself but also its heartrending impact on innocent civilians, on our sense of our own humanity. But they do much more than that. They have an iconic quality as if created with a painter's eye for detail, composition and contrast." John Green, Morning Star "This powerful, terrible book conveys a Dantesque vision of our humanity. Admiration for Goran Toma evic, a wonderful Caravaggio of photography!" Francis Kochert, Academie nationale de Metz Goran Tomas?evic is a living legend. Not only has he survived for 30 years in crisis zones, but he has mastered the supreme art of photography, interpreting the world in a humanistic way, following in the footsteps of Robert Capa and James Nachtwey. This powerful, terrifying book conveys a Dantesque vision of our humanity. Current circumstances lead us to believe that this madness will go on and on.
