Davidson's book of black and white photographs from 1999 to 2007
hearken to a time when the country was still recovering from its
"Special Period," after the Soviet Union broke up and stopped
financially supporting the Castro regime. These images demystify a
people, describe a moment, and afford us a rare glimpse into a
country's past.--Rain Embuscado "ArtNet News"
The book's printing is of classic beauty with deep blacks and
luscious tonalities printed on a semi-matte paper that shows no
glare and has brilliant whites. The paper is of a substantial
weight and has a luxurious feel with expert binding. Clearly,
Steidl's printing is masterful.--Richard Rivera "The New York
Journal of Books"
