2.0 out of 5 stars
Very disappointing,
By Stephanie Soderblom CCCE CD(DONA) ICD (Mesa, AZ USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Birth/Naitre/Die Geburt: Photographs of Magnum Photos/Photographies De Magnum Photos/Fotografien Von Magnum Photos (Terrail Photo Series) (English and French Edition) (Paperback)
As someone who does pregnancy and birth photography, I was so excited about getting this book...and so disappointed when I actually looked at it. There are only 45 pictures total in this book...and most of them are mothers in other cultures holding their infants. This would be fine if it was a book on cultures and infants...but it's not very good when it's in a book that you expect birth photography. The reason I gave this a 2 star rating instead of a 1 star rating is because there ARE a couple of nice breastfeeding photographs...however, even most of the infant pictures are disturbing and not nice to look at (photos of babies left alone in cribs in an empty room while they cry alone, or otherwise not being nurtured and loved). I did not like what I saw, and felt cheated that I'd spent $12 to see it.
