Coalfaces (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781917140645)

Coalfaces portrays the life and landscape of five small settlements in south Wales. These communities in the Afan Valley, after the pit closures, had to deal with high levels of unemployment and found themselves with severe adjustment problems. Over more than ten years, Tina Carr and Annemarie Sch? ne worked with the residents of the valley to document the place they call 'home'. These photographs, gritty, beautiful, empathetic, sad and humorous, reflect a hardy and feisty attitude, shared by the residents despite the adversity they are forced to face, and provide us with a much-needed reminder of a community all too easily forgotten about.
