«In mare non esistono taxi» is Roberto Saviano's visual essay on immigration, published by Contrasto in hardback (176 pages, in Italian).
Saviano comments on a series of photographs by nine reporters who have documented migration in the Mediterranean and links them to current political affairs: from the Diciotti case to the routes from Libya. The book includes interviews with four photographers and a conversation with a Médecins Sans Frontières nurse, and defends the practice of testimony against propaganda about immigration.
The work includes photographs by Martina Bacigalupo, Olmo Calvo, Lorenzo Meloni, Paolo Pellegrin, Alessandro Penso, Giulio Piscitelli, Moises Saman, Massimo Sestini and Carlos Spottorno, and is dedicated to Alessandro Leogrande.
For readers interested in non-fiction, photojournalism and the debate on immigration in the Mediterranean.
Roberto Saviano is an Italian writer, journalist, and screenwriter. In his writings, including articles and his book Gomorrah, he uses literature and investigative reporting to tell of the economic reality of the territory and business of organized crime in Italy, in particular the Camorra crime syndicate, and of organized crime more generally.
