In the Middle East, cradle of Civilisations and monotheistic religions, arena of blood and violence, centre of the worst massacres and the greatest tolerance, Kurdistan is unique.
Yarsanists, Yezidis, Zoroastians, Manicheans, Jews,Christians of various denominations, Sunni and Shi’a Moslems, Sufi Brotherhoods, all have cohabited here through the ages in a precarious balance, upset from time to time by dramatic events reflecting the extreme sensitivity of this part of the world. This book of photographs tries to present all these religious facets which make Kurdistan a unique Land of God.
