Open Shutters Iraq

Condition: Standard Secondhand — £149.65
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Photographer Eugenie Dolberg ran the Open Shutters Iraq project in 2006/7, at the height of the murderous sectarian violence in Iraq. Over the course of three months, women from five cities in Iraq learned about photography, told each other their life stories, and produced a unique body of photographic and written work. The book includes eight of their photographic essays and a series of evocative single pictures from Baghdad, Basra, Falluja, Kirkuk and Mosul. The intersection of the contemporary history of Iraq and the individual lived experience women there emerges through their tales of war, sanctions, uprisings, siege, kidnapping, grief, love, happiness, times of resistance, achievements and small triumphs.
