BROTT innehåller 30 fotografier i färg av spruckna trottoarplattor. BROTT kan tolkas på många sätt. Den enklaste betydelsen är brott som i orden spricka, reva, skreva, springa, rämna. Därutöver finns ett otal konkreta och bildliga betydelser. Brott som i brottstycken, stenbrott, benbrott, brottyta. Man skulle kunna se fotografierna som en upprättelse för de nedtrampade, osedda trottoarplattorna, och i förlängningen mot allting som är förtrampat. Boken och bilderna upphöjer trottoarplattorna till konst. De spruckna plattorna blir abstrakta målningar, inspirerade av bl.a. Malevitj kvadrater. Tankarna löper också till Dostojevskijs och livets Brott och straff, ”Stockholm noir”. Sprickorna kan också ses som betydelseskiljande bokstäver, runor. Sprickorna skulle också kunna symbolisera gapet mellan olika världar, men också platsen där ljuset sipprar in. Helga Krook har skrivit »Vara här« på svenska och Jenny White »Still Life« på engelska, två noveller inspirerade av fotografierna.
A powerful graphic novel that traces Turkey's descent into political violence in the 1970s through the experiences of four students on opposing sides of the conflictTurkish Kaleidoscope tells the stories of four unforgettable protagonists as they navigate a society torn apart by violent political factions. It is 1975 and Turkey is on the verge of civil war. Faruk and Orhan are from conservative shopkeeping families in eastern Anatolia that share a sense of new possibilities. Nuray is the daughter of villagers who have migrated to the provincial city where Yunus, the son of an imprisoned teacher, was raised in genteel poverty. While attending medical school in Ankara, Faruk draws a reluctant Orhan into a right-wing nationalist group while Nuray and Yunus join the left. Against a backdrop of escalating violence, the four students fall in love, have their hearts broken, get married, raise families, and struggle to get on with their lives. But the consequences of their decisions will follow them through their lives as their children begin the story anew, skewed through the kaleidoscope of historical events.Inspired by Jenny White's own experiences as a student in Turkey during this tumultuous period as well as original oral histories of Turks who lived through it, Turkish Kaleidoscope reveals how violent factionalism has its own emotional and cultural logic that defies ideological explanations.
When Semaj and his sister went out to play, he noticed a little girl next door sitting on her steps with a brand-new bike. He went over, introduced himself and asked if he could ride her bike. She said, "Yes." As he was walking down the sidewalk with the bike, he suddenly heard someone shouting, "Come back here with that bike " Suddenly there were hands dragging him and the bike back toward the house. He was screaming, "You were stealing the bike and I'm calling the cops "

Junior was so excited that he forgot to be careful like Papa asked him to be. As he attempted to hop over a broken branch lying on top of the snow, he tripped and fell down into a deep, narrow hole.The sun had already gone down and it was dark. Junior called to Jenny for help, but he had hopped so far away that she couldn't hear him. He tried to hop out of the hole, but he couldn't. He kept calling for help in case any of the other animals running around could hear him and come to his aid...but no one came.
Passion Play, »Images of ritual worlds, 1987–2007«, speglar en fotografisk odyssé genom en värld av riter och ritualer. Boktiteln alluderar på påsken, på lidandet och lidelsen, på passionsspelen, på de medeltida mysteriespelen. Men också på andra kollektiva högtider som firas lidelsefullt. Ordet »PLAY« betyder här både pjäs, som i skådespel, men också lek, som i de lekar vi i egenskap av barn och vuxna leker. Fotografierna gestaltar närmare 20 olika skeenden, däribland påsken i Spanien, Italien, Portugal och Grekland, karnevalen i Venedig, pingsten i andalusiska Rocío och De dödas dag i Mexiko. Bilderna vittnar om vårt behov av myter och berättelser. Fotografen har fascinerats av det lekfulla allvar och den mänskliga teater där hopp och sinnesglädje gifter sig med bråddjup och sorg. I ritualerna blir skiljelinjen mellan ödmjuk botgörelse och hänryckning lika genomtränglig som den mellan död och liv. Boken innehåller essän »Död och hänryckning« av författaren och antropologen Jenny White.
While listening to the tour guide, Junior suddenly became aware of hands reaching out to him. The touch startled him, and he jumped but he lost his footing and fell into the water The hands that had reached for him were trying to get him out the water, but he kept moving further and further away.

They would be worried. As he sat and pondered his plight, he heard a voice say, "Pssst, Junior over here "
