"Was hat dieses leblose gelbe Metall nur an sich, dass es die Menschen dazu bringt, ihre Heimat zu verlassen, all ihre Habe zu verkaufen und einen ganzen Kontinent zu durchqueren, um ihr Leben, ihre Knochen und ihre Gesundheit für einen Traum aufs Spiel zu setzen?" - Sebastião Salgado Nachdem man 1979 in einem der Flüsse der Gegend Gold entdeckt hatte, weckte die Serra Pelada Sehnsüchte nach dem legendären Goldland El Dorado. Ein Jahrzehnt lang war sie die weltgrößte Freiluftgoldmine , in der unter unmenschlichen Bedingungen rund 50.000 Goldgräber arbeiteten. Heute ist Brasiliens Goldrausch nur noch Stoff für Legenden , am Leben erhalten durch wenige glückliche und viele schmerzliche Erinnerungen - und die Fotografien von Sebastião Salgado. Im September 1986 erhielt Salgado endlich die Genehmigung, Serra Pelada zu besuchen - sechs Jahre lang hatten ihm brasilianische Militärbehörden den Zugang verweigert. Auf das außergewöhnliche Schauspiel, das ihn auf dieser abgelegenen Bergkuppe am Rande des Amazonas-Regenwalds erwartete, war er allerdings nicht gefasst. Vor seinen Augen tat sich ein gewaltiges Loch auf, mit einem Durchmesser von rund 200 Metern und ebenso tief, in dem Zehntausende notdürftig bekleidete Männer wie Ameisen schufteten. Die Hälfte von ihnen schleppte bis zu 40 Kilo schwere Säcke über hölzerne Leitern nach oben, die anderen sprangen an schlammigen Böschungen hinunter in den höhlenartigen Schlund, Körper und Gesichter ockerfarben von der eisenerzhaltigen Erde, die sie ausgeschachtet hatten. Als Salgado diese Aufnahmen machte, dominierten Farbfotos die Hochglanzseiten der Magazine. Schwarz-Weiß war ein gewagtes Unterfangen, doch seine Fotostrecke zur Goldmine der Serra Pelada führte zur Rückbesinnung auf die monochrome Fotografie . Damit knüpfte sie an eine Tradition an, die in den frühen und mittleren Jahren des 20. Jahrhunderts von Meistern wie Edward Weston, Brassaï, Robert Capa oder Henri Cartier-Bresson begründet worden war. Als Salgados Bilder beim New York Times Magazine eintrafen, geschah etwas Außergewöhnliches: Es herrschte vollkommene Stille. "In meiner ganzen Karriere bei der Times ", erinnerte sich Fotoredakteur Peter Howe, "habe ich niemals erlebt, dass Redakteure so auf eine Serie von Bildern reagierten wie auf die Aufnahmen von Serra Pelada." Heute, da die Fotografie von der Kunstwelt und von digitaler Manipulation vereinnahmt wird, begeistert Salgados Portfolio mit einer geradezu biblischen Qualität , sowie einer Unmittelbarkeit, die seinen Bildern zugleich etwas ausgesprochen Zeitgenössisches verleiht. Die Mine in Serra Pelada ist längst geschlossen, doch das bittere Drama des Goldrauschs springt den Betrachter aus jedem dieser Bilder immer noch an. Dieses Buch enthält das vollständige Serra-Pelada-Portfolio in großformatigen Reproduktionen und Museumsqualität, ein Vorwort des Fotografen, sowie einen Essay von Alan Riding. INSTITUTO TERRA1998 in Aimorés im Bundesstaat Minas Gerais gegründet, ist Instituto Terra das Resultat von Lélia Wanick Salgados und Sebastião Salgados lebenslangem Kampf für die Erhaltung von Natur- und Artenvielfalt. Durch die systematische Anpflanzung neuer Setzlinge hat die Organisation eine wundersame Wiederaufforstung des einst unfruchtbaren Tales bewirkt und fördert damit das Ziel der Salgados, den Effekt der Klimaerwärmung auf unseren Planeten einzudämmen. TASCHEN ist stolz darauf, durch unseren Beitrag zu dieser Mission den Status als CO2-neutraler Verlag erreicht zu haben. Ebenfalls erhältlich als signierte und limitierte Collector's Edition

A Beta’s Dream!
Format: Kindle
I loved this book!! Unwanted follows Cammie, a single mom and Beta, working two jobs, trying her best to raise a son and daughter since her a$$hole ex Alpha kicked them out after meeting his scent match. Being a Beta from the wrong side of the tracks, Cammie is often the victim of rumors and blatant disrespect from several alphas in town; and while in a panic searching for her daughter who somehow managed to wander outside of the home, she finds herself in a panic when she comes across a police officer. Rather than help her, Cammie finds herself feeling threatened and helpless against the alpha’s behavior. That’s when Reid, one of her Alpha neighbors (and super hot firefighter) swoops in to her rescue. Sparks fly, but Cammie thinks nothing of it since she is so used to being disregarded. Little does she know, Reid goes home to his Omega, the adorable and caring Finn, and confesses that he thinks he’s met their match. What follows is a beautiful hurt/comfort romance, with lots of steam, and found family perfection! Reid and Finn worship Cammie and absolutely adore her kids. They’ll do anything to protect them and cherish them, to erase all the hurt and rejection that their bio dad put them through. It’s such a heart warming and emotional story—perfect for when you’re feeling like something low angst with princess treatment for not just Cammie, but her kids as well. I definitely recommend picking this one up!!

Emotional read with children
Format: Kindle
Cammie is a single mother of two children whose ex-boyfriend, who is an alpha that he met his scent matched omega and dumped her via messenger on his phone then the next day put their house up for sale. Cammie moves back to her hometown, but because she has no support, is working two jobs to keep her and the children in a small rented house. One night her four year gets out of the house and she meets a neighbour, but she refuses to make the same mistake again by getting involved with another alpha, but Reid is convinced they are scent matched mates even though Cammie is a beta. Reid and his omega Fin start to court Cammie and her two children that they belong together as a pack and family. Cammie's ten year old son is a tough one to convince, but the scenes between him and Reid and Fin, they were so good. I was tearing up at times, found family was a big theme and I really liked this book. I highly recommend that you try it too.

The storytelling is impeccable, weaving together a tapestry of raw emotion, suspense, and heart-wrenching beauty. Song's ability to delve deep into the psyche of her characters makes them come alive, making you feel their pain, joy, and struggles as if they were your own. The plot is brilliantly crafted, full of unexpected twists and turns that keep you on the edge of your seat. Each chapter unfolds like a piece of a complex puzzle, gradually revealing the depth of the narrative.

Sirena Song's prose is poetic and evocative, painting vivid pictures with her words and creating an immersive reading experience. The character development is outstanding, making it easy to become emotionally invested in their journeys. The ending is both satisfying and thought-provoking, leaving you pondering long after you've turned the last page. "Unwanted" is not just a book; it's an experience that touches the soul.

Totally Sweet
Format: Kindle
🔥OmegaVerse 🔥Single Mom 🔥Scent Match 🔥Emotional Trauma Well written, emotional omegaverse about a single mom of 2 with an ex-Alpha boyfriend that found his Omega and ditched his family. Cammie has a meet cute with Reid and Finton separately but they both find her to be their scent match. This book is totally sweet with lots of drama but lots of proving to Cammie that she is loved and wanted. My Personal Ratings: 5 Stars: Loved it! Couldn’t put it down or obsessed about it while needing to get to the end of it. Had to share some bits with my hubby!! Usually read in less than 2 days cause a girl has got to sleep sometime. Will be reading everything this author has to offer and most likely reread the series as next books in the series are released. 4 Stars: Really Good. Whether the story drew me in or a specific character, will definitely continue the series and look into more books by this author. 3 Stars: Enjoyed something about the book, whether it be the storyline or a character but also may have not liked something. Sometimes the book is great but needs some TLC from an editor. May or may not continue the series.

Read it!!! It's so good!
Format: Kindle
I will reccomend this book to anyone and everyone who is looking for an omegaverse book to read! The rabbit hole of male omega books this one sent my mood reading self down was crazy! 🤭 I could not have loved Finn more! He was the sweetest omega, making sure Cammie was comfortable each step of building a relationship with him and Reid. He was so good with the kids even though Ben was a little rough around the edges. Cammie's fears were all justified but the way she learned to trust her new pack was sweet! They just continued to show up and her sister was hilarious! Being a mom and thinking of her littles but also finding her own happiness was such a sweet journey for her 💖 lets just talk about the kids for a second and say Em is a spitfire and I LOVE her and Ben sweet Ben just wants to protect his Mama but needs love, Reid does such a good job stepping up! And the 'gift' at the end had me in tears!! 🥹 Without giving too much away that is why I think sweet Finn is my favorite of all male omegas I have ever read! His way with words no matter what he is using them for, declarations of love, pep talks, or advice he really just knows what needs to be said 💖
