The book is an inti­ma­te por­trait of a part of the world that is sel­dom men­tio­ned or reco­gnis­ed and the result of years of tra­vel­ling in the area. Lasthein uses his pan­or­amic came­ra as a means of both being in the midd­le of a situa­ti­on and get­ting a wide-ang­le view of the sce­ne. His pic­tures are often com­po­sed of mul­ti­ple inter­ac­ting actions. In the Cau­ca­sus the con­cept of bor­der­land gets espe­cial­ly vivid. Here Euro­pe meets Asia and Islam meets Chris­tia­ni­ty; a myri­ad natio­na­li­ties, lan­guages and cul­tures live side by side. In spi­te of the unre­sol­ved wars and con­flicts sin­ce the fall of the Soviet Uni­on, peop­le of the new coun­tries and repu­blics are still emo­tio­nal­ly tied tog­e­ther by their com­mon histo­ry. Jens Olof Lasthein’s pic­tures tell sto­ries full of life from a regi­on which is most often tal­ked about only when bombs explo­de or bor­der con­flicts fla­re up anew.
