Best photobooks of 2012
Cristina de Middel, The Afronauts
For those of you who had been hoping for me to repeat last year’s meta-list compilation of all of the ‘best books of the year’ lists I could find on the Internet, by now you will have realised that regretfully, I was going to disappoint you. Thankfully your disappointment will have been short-lived: QT Luong has stepped into the breach and has just posted the meta-list for 2012. The comfortable (and deserved, in my view) winner is Cristina de Middel’s The Afronauts which I am extremely glad to have got my hands on while I still could. For the full list head to Luong’s Terra Galleria blog. As for the meta-list, I believe that this is an exercise that a person should only do once in their Internet life so if there are any volunteers for compiling the 2013 photobook best of list, be my guest!
