KESTEREN, Geert van. Why Mister, Why?: Iraq 2003-2004.

(Amsterdam): Artimo, 2004.  First edition.  Softcover.  21.8cm by 17cm.  Unpaginated. Foreword by Jan Gruiters, introduction by Michael Hirsh, text in English and Arabic. A powerful and immersive photojournalistic work that documents Iraq in the years 2003–2004, immediately following the U.S. invasion. With more than 250 images, van Kesteren combines stark, unflinching visuals with personal, diary‑like commentary. He reports from both conflict zones (embedded with U.S. troops) and the lives of ordinary Iraqis navigating occupation, chaos, and hope.  Printed on thin, magazine‑style stock with perforated edges.  A very good copy in glossy wrappers.  A nice copy of this important work.
