“Empty Land, Promised Land, Forbidden Land” is the second annual publication from the Sochi Project and was published in 2010. It was nominated for the Kassel International Photobook Award 2011 and listed in the Photo-eye Best Books of 2010.

For me, this book is so far the best documentary book that was ever made. It really caught me like a good movie. If you like to know more about it, Andrew Phelps reviewed the book here.

"Empty land, Promised land, Forbidden land is not a photo book. It is a documentary in book form, in which stories are told through text and photography. Sometimes the text tells its own story, sometimes the photography does and sometimes they do so together. The book’s format was geared towards this; we wanted the largest format that would still be comfortable to handle."
