Reviews

Based not least on five years of extensive onsite research, Granqvist has produced a study of Elisofon s life s work that is iconoclastic and intellectually challenging. Best, his reading of Elisofon s photography demands that we reassess our Western perspectives on both the Cold War in Europe and, most pertinently, the legacy of colonialism in Africa. A vigorous, exhaustive, and demanding study. <b>John A. Stotesbury, </b> Fellow of the English Association, and former Postcolonial Literary Studies Professor, University of Eastern Finland
