Acerca del libro
The Indonesian resort island of Bali is undergoing the fastest, and some might say the most destructive, change in its long history.
Mercifully ignored by the Colonial Dutch for centuries due to its lack of spices, Bali wasn't known as the 'Last Paradise' or the 'Land of Nature in the Raw'. Back then Bali was 'Savage Bali' - The Island of Demons - where tigers patrolled the Gilimanuk Road and magic roamed.
This book is a pictorial essay about contemporary Bali with its polarities of light and dark, and the ceaseless assault on its future by outsiders in their never-ending quest for a corner of Paradise.
Poor Bali! Kasihan Bali!
