Description:

Sudan: The Passing of Time by Jean-Pierre Ribière explores the rich history, diverse culture, and unique heritage of Sudan. The book provides a detailed narrative accompanied by vivid imagery that captures the essence of Sudanese life and its historical evolution.

Through the lens of time, the author examines the intersection of tradition and modernity, shedding light on the challenges and changes faced by the nation. This work is an invaluable resource for readers interested in Sudan's past and present, combining visual storytelling with insightful commentary.

The soft, rich colours of these photographs show the Sudan at peace with itself, with views of green terraces, clear streams, distant mountains and the receding hills of the Sahel. Our preconceptions of the Sudan are gently pushed aside as Ribiere shows us people going about their routines winnowing sorghum, filling a water trough or grinding grain.
Against the vivid blue walls of the city, or as the rain falls on a village, we see the real Sudan.
