At the Edge of the World by Jean Mohr

Swiss photographer Jean Mohr has travelled the globe documenting the lives of the dispossessed, the marginalized and the overlooked for over forty years. This book describes his life.
Berger's narrative manages to let the reader engage with the visual portraits without dictating how the images are readAn extremely accessible keyhole view of different cultures and peoples, offering one man's perception of where the borders of the contemporary world lie Geographical Magazine Wonderfully evocative... thought-provoking and strangely uplifting Sunday Times Every picture tells a story, and Mohr uses the power of that narrative to take us, paradoxically, to the edges of a round world, to meet with people we will never meet, to undertake journeys with our imaginations that our bodies will never feel, to share friends who are not ours, to look into eyes we may never see Journeys
Jean Mohr co-authored A Fortunate Man: The Story of a Country Doctor (1967) and A Seventh Man (1975). Berger's most recent novel is King: A Street Story (1999).
