Images from rural South Africa

First edition: 13 pages of letterpress and 58 full-page black & white photographs with captions opposite, white paper covered boards, a fine copy in the dust jacket now preserved in a Brodart protector.

Susan Sontag remarks: “Platteland is an altogether extraordinary book, the most impressive sequence of portraits I've seen in years, Roger Ballen has used the power of photography to instruct, to shock and to discomfit with an exemplary integrity of purpose.
