Synopsis
The author’s celebrated quest to capture today’s built and natural environment and way of life along the DMZ, separating the two Koreas, is both a stunning literary and photographic achievement. Supported by 150 colour photographs, the book by one of Korea’s renowned photographers takes the reader from Chulwon in the east to Kosung in the west.

About the Author
Lee Si-woo is a well known photojournalist and peace campaigner in South Korea. He has published a number of books and collections of his photographs which focus on the anti-personnel mines remaining in the de-militarized zone separating South and North Korea (known in Korea as the Civilian Passage Restriction Line), and on the continued presence of the US-led command in South Korea. In 2007, he was imprisoned for some months for (allegedly) contravening the National Security Law, during which time he went on hunger strike for forty days. He was subsequently released pending trial. This is his first book to be published in English. It addresses many of the issues central to his work and his concerns for the future of the Korean people.
