Review
Written by Dave

In May 1975, as Cambodia was being cut off from the outside world, the Khmer Rouge expelled the last remaining foreigners over the Thai border at Poipet. Among them was photographer Roland Neveu. At the time, he had no inkling of the genocide that would be inflicted on this country. But for the next 30 years, he regularly visited Cambodia and its borders, working clandestinely at times, to document the horrors of war and the hopes for peace. The pictures in this unique book bear witness to his enduring interest and coverage of the Cambodian story. Many photographs appeared in leading international newsmagazines, books and exhibitions. An earlier version of the book was featured in a 2 pages story in Time Magazine (http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,184046,00.html)
