Italy has always been and remains a dream destination for many Germans. Travelers appreciate its cultural heritage, beaches, climate, and cuisine. But behind the enchanting backdrop of its historic old towns and magnificent landscapes often lies another side of Italy: the discontent of its citizens, poverty, chaos, pollution, the mafia, violence, and a corrupt and decadent political system. Through his travels from the south to the north of the country, photographer Christian Jungeblodt (born in 1962), who himself lived in Italy for many years, reveals the proximity of the beautiful and the ugly, of splendor and misery, of grandeur and despair. Essays by renowned authors such as Petra Reski and John Hooper accompany this book of photographs, richly illustrated with color and black-and-white images taken with a smartphone.
