The book "The Bang-Bang Club" refers to a group of four young war photographers, friends, and collaborators: Ken Oosterbroek, Kevin Carter, Greg Marinovich, and Joao Silva, who worked during the last years of apartheid in South Africa. Their photographs capture the last violent moments of racist white South Africa, with two of them having won a Pulitzer for their individual photos. The book, written by Greg and Joao, narrates the powerful stories of war and the moral dilemmas they experienced in situations of extreme violence and pain. At the same time, it highlights the relationships between the four men and the history of the end of apartheid. An extremely powerful and shocking book, it significantly contributes to the literature of war photography. Ideal for readers of Susan Sontag.
