Propaganda and Dreams

Viac o knihe

Propaganda & Dreams is a revealing portrait of two countries, the United States and the Soviet Union of the 1930s. This thought-provoking volume includes more than 200 photographs, all, says author Leah Bendavid-Val, "generated by governments for causes that were shared by the photographers who took the pictures, the authorities who funded them, and the publishers who disseminated them." These photographs all offer impactive realism, but it is "mingled [with] romance...in varying ways and degrees."
