Vietnam, through Epstein's eyes, is a sometimes disturbing and sometimes sublime palimpsest.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ci\u003eVietnam: A Book of Changes\u003c\/i\u003e interprets a culture and landscape largely cut off from the West for the last thirty years, and now open to a market economy and a new relationship to America. The photographs are suffused with the rawness of Vietnamese life lived on the economic and political edge. Under the layer of friendship lies the tension of politics; under beauty lies violence; under the stark faces of remote villagers is the entrepreneurial momentum drawing them to the city; and under the remnants of war is an artistic bohemia grappling with new freedoms and continued censorship.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMitch Epstein's\u003c\/b\u003e work has been exhibited widely and included in numerous photography collections throughout the world.
