B103 Sounds of the Soul: The
Traditional Music of Timor-Leste/ Lian Husi Klamar: Musika Tradisional Husi
Timor-Leste
with Lafaek Holds a Party
by Ros Dunlop
Author and musician Ros Dunlop made her first trip to Timor-Leste in April 2002 with Timor activist brothers Robert and Martin Wesley-Smith. Ros and Martin gave concerts of Martin’s audiovisual pieces about East Timor. Ros then began visiting Timor-Leste regularly to record its special music. The skilled musicians who participated were acutely aware of the importance of recording their music for posterity. The translators and assistants who helped to organize the recording sessions, the artists from Arte Moris Art School, and the young Timorese from the audiovisual archive, Centro Archivo Max Stahl Timor-Leste, helped to make this project happen.
The text is in both Tetun and English.

The book is wonderful and everyone love it. I am playing the music the sound in my car. Loving it. The book is so genuine, like the music inside, ‘genuine, innocence and spontaneous’. --Josh Trindade, Advisor, Research, Analysis and Social-Cultural Issues, Presidential Palace, Dili

B92 Peace of Wall: Street Art
from East Timor
by Chris Parkinson (foreword by Jose Ramos-Horta)
The images and words adorning the walls of East Timor reflect the country's
tumultuous history, precarious present and hopeful future. They endow the social
landscape with a rawness and honesty absent from their media, and echo the
struggle towards new nationhood. Peace of Wall is widely contradictory,
emotionally charged, instantly engaging and consistently dramatic. It's life in
East Timor.
Chris Parkinson spent four years living and working in East Timor. Throughout
this time, he documented the changing political and social climate in East Timor
through its street art. He amassed over 3000 photographs and hundreds of hours
of interviews. Peace of Wall showcases a selection of these inspirational
stories and artwork.

B64 Timor-Leste Land of Discovery
by Dan Groshon
This gorgeous coffee table picture book illustrates the great beauty of
new nation's landscape and people. An ideal gift.I am Timorese, living abroad (in Portugal), since I was 11 years old. I want to thank you for your book, Timor-Leste Land of Discovery, which gives me some images of Timor, my homeland, that I left 24 years ago. The images are absolutely fantastic and many are of parts of Timor still unknown to me. Timor-Leste Land of Discovery gives me a fantastic free journey to Timor where I hope one day I can return. The title of the book is a perfect resume of the images that you can find within. -- Ângelo Gonçalves
This book brings new images of this new land. This book will surely offer everyone great unforgettable moments of contemplation on the natural beauties of Timor-Leste. -- President Kay Rala Xanana Gusmão.
These evocative photographs present our culture and our traits in a way no other book has done before. José Ramos-Horta

B6 Generations of Resistance: East Timor
Photographs by Steve Cox, with introduction by Peter Carey
Extraordinary photos of East Timor, including 8 in color of the Santa Cruz massacre.
Images of contemporary life in East Timor, illustrate the reality of
existence under Indonesian occupation and the horror of events such as the
1991 Santa Cruz massacre. Having lived among and gained the trust of the
Timorese, Cox's photographs unmasked the deceptions of Indonesian government
propaganda and provided substance to foreign journalists whose reports were
heavily circumscribed by official restrictions. These insights into the
daily struggle with suffering and death in East Timor are accompanied by
an authoritative historical introduction of events since 1975 by Peter Carey.

"What is striking about her portraits is the eyes of her subjects....we don't just stare at Brière's people: They also stare back at us. Because she captured the human essence of East Timor, Brière's photographs turned out to be enormously effective as political art. After seeing her pictures, it was hard to dismiss East Timor as a faraway place of little consequence."
-- Jeet Heer, National Post, June 17, 2004

B75 The Testimony Project: Papua
by Charles E. Farhadian, photographs by Stephan Babuljak
A collection of histories in West Papua. Twelve West Papuans speak for themselves, movingly present their life stories in 'raw narratives' as if the interviewees were speaking directly to the reader. Introduction by Ed McWilliams. Dr. Charles Farhadian, who edited the book, explains: "The goal in creating the book is two-fold. First, it is crucial that Papuans get a chance to speak for themselves, rather than being reinterpreted or silenced for any number of reasons and by any number of people. By speaking for themselves, Papuans demonstrate they are actors in their own right. Second, it is equally important to provide an historical document that records the lives of Papuans at the beginning of the 21st century."
“This book is the first of its kind. It dignifies Papuans and lets us speak
on our own terms.”
-- Father Neles Tebay, Bishop of Jayapura, Papua
"The Testimony Project: Papua challenges the standardized or idealized
views of Papuans.”
-- Rev. Dr. Benny Giay, Professor of Church & Society, Papua
