Hot Light/Half-Made Worlds: Photographs from the Tropics

Spectacular images in bright, vivid colors and deep, impenetrable blacks show the beauty, desperation, exuberance, and incipient violence in the world's tropics regions. Though the photographs range from Mexico to the Caribbean Islands, Africa, and Asia, they are unified by Alex Webb's concern for the sense of mystery as well as the ironies and tensions which these regions all share. 96 pages; 76 color plates; 12.5 x 10.75 inches.
