Accompanied by text by renowned author and critic, Peter Timms, this is Australia as you've never seen it before, a strange and intoxicating land which occasionally becomes a green desert. 2013, First edition, first printing.

Oblong quarto hardcover; white papered boards with gilt lower board and spine titling; 236pp., colour illustrations. Very minor wear only; near fine in like dustwrapper. Postage quoted is for a standard format octavo book. Final charges may vary depending on size and weight. "What we call coffee-table books are often not intended for close reading or a lingering focus, but rather a glossing over with momentary oohs and aahs. The Green Desert is a clear exception. Peter Elfes' photography captures astonishing views of Australia's interior, beautifully complemented by Peter Timms' informative and complementary text. The paradox inherent in the book's title is intentional, reflecting the effect of the rare flooding of the Lake Eyre Basin (Kati Thanda) that produces burgeoning wildlife for a relatively short time. Elfes' pictures offer quite recognisable views one moment and beautifully abstract ones the next. The arresting cover shot is one striking example of the latter. That image folds out in four directions, so that it does the original justice - and this alone says something about the attention to quality of this volume. The basin normally takes up a sixth of Australia's land surface and, remarkably, it flooded in three successive years recently: 2009, 2010, and 2011. Timms refers to such events as producing 'a kind of mass longing' in the public consciousness, and it is that which The Green Desert taps into. After describing something of his own family's migrant photography business (and that, too, is interesting), Timms uses these flood years to frame successive individual chapters with Elfes' corresponding pictures. He explains how his interest was initially boosted by the late Paul Lockyer's ABC documentary of the basin in 2009. Readers may well recall both it and the matching book, Great Southern Land, which had a wider geographic focus than this volume. The final chapter addresses Timms' own growing and life-altering connection with the Adnyamathanha people, who are the traditional owners of the country. The text never overwhelms the pictures, nor vice versa. Both emphasise the relative insignificance of humankind in this environment, evoking a sense of spiritual wonder rather than pointlessness. You understand how one can lose the ability to situate oneself when there is no clear point of reference in the landscape, how the place presents the idea of the unframeable just as it is being photographed. Elfes says that he had to confront the notion that the lake was 'a much more complicated place' than he had expected. He says that 'one of Australia's great attractions is that there are still vast spaces to get lost in', and that we carry a great responsibility to care for it." Steve Evand In Daily.

XLVI, 123 Seiten u. zahlreiche Kunstdrucktafeln mit vielen Abbildungen. Farbig illustrierte Originalbroschur. (Obere, rechte Ecke durchgehend gestaucht). * Entre Rios (deutsch: zwischen Flüssen, amtlich portugiesisch Distrito de Entre Rios) ist ein Bezirk der Gemeinde Guarapuava im Bundesstaat Paraná in Brasilien. Entre Rios wurde 1951 mit der Ankunft von 500 donauschwäbischen Familien nach dem 2. Weltkrieg gegründet. Nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg siedelten sich im Jahr 1951 donauschwäbische Auswanderer in Entre Rios an. Die Schweizer Europahilfe stellte den etwa 500 Familien (2.466 Personen) einen Betrag von rund 9 Mio. Schweizer Franken für Landkauf, Transporte, Ankauf von Maschinen und Aufbau der Siedlung zur Verfügung. Auch in Brasilien selbst gab es für die Kolonisation Unterstützung. Die insgesamt 7 Transporte wurden von Schweizer Dominikanerschwestern begleitet, die später auch im Bereich des Schul- und Gesundheitswesens von Entre Rios wirkten. Der Bezirk Distrito de Entre Rios wurde am 27. Juni 1962 durch das Staatsgesetz Lei Estadual n.º 4.583 gegründet. Die Siedlung umfasst fünf Dörfer (Vitória, Jordãozinho, Cachoeira, Socorro und Samambaia), deren Bewohner hauptsächlich von der Landwirtschaft leben. Sie sind größtenteils in der Genossenschaft Agrária organisiert, die um die 570 Mitglieder und über 1000 Mitarbeiter hat. Angebaut wird hauptsächlich Mais, Soja, Weizen, Braugerste und Hafer. Die Siedler gründeten eine eigene Schule, heute Kaiserin Leopoldina Schule genannt sowie ein Krankenhaus (Hospital Semmelweis) und unterhalten ein Heimatmuseum (Museu Histórico de Entre Rios) sowie die Donauschwäbisch-Brasilianische Kulturstiftung, die sowohl das Kulturzentrum Mathias Leh als auch ein deutschsprachiges Radioprogramm umfasst. Dieses wird von Rádio Universitária Entre Rios FM in Zusammenarbeit mit der Universität UNICENTRO ausgestrahlt. Mittlerweile ist die Genossenschaft Agraria, welcher die meisten Nachfahren der Donauschwaben angehören, der größte Malzproduzent Südamerikas. In den vergangenen Jahren wird auch der ökologische Anbau in dieser Gegend immer wichtiger. Geologie: Der Distrikt liegt etwa 30 Kilometer südlich von der Stadtmitte. Zudem liegt er an den beiden wichtigsten Flüssen, dem Rio Jordão und dem Rio Pinhão. Ein Hochlandgebiet umschließt den Distrikt, welcher auf einer Höhe von 1100 Metern über Normalnull liegt. Klima: In Entre Rios herrscht grundsätzlich gemäßigtes Klima, das zwei Ernten im Jahr gestattet. Nachtfröste im Winter, anhaltende starke Regenfälle, aber auch teilweise Trockenperioden gefährden jedoch zuweilen den Ertrag der Aussaaten. In den vergangenen Jahren fand eine deutliche Klimaveränderung durch El Niño statt. Gelegentlich kommt es im brasilianischen Winter zu Schneefall und Temperaturen um den Gefrierpunkt.
