(DARWELL, JOHN). Darwell, John. Stockport, UK: Dewi Lewis Publishers, 2001. First Edition. Oblong 8vo. Pictorial Boards. Photography Monograph. As New/No Jacket - As Issued. np (52pp), 34 color illustrations. This is John Darwell's compact photo-essay documenting the Chernobyl Nuclear Reactors' "Zones of Exclusion": the permanently evacuated area surrounding the 1986 Russian Nuclear Power Plant disaster. It provides a haunting and eerily beautiful glimpse of the thirty kilometer wasteland where no man can now go - and is the perfect compliment to Robert Polidori's oversized volume on the same subject. A brand new, pristine example. 1-899235-58-2 Inventory Number: 015883
