About this product
Product Information
Alistair Urquhart was a soldier in the Gordon Highlanders captured by the Japanese in Singapore. He not only survived working on the notorious Bridge on the River Kwai , but he was subsequently taken on one of the Japanese 'hellships' which was torpedoed. Nearly everyone else on board died and Urquhart spent 5 days alone on a raft in the South China Sea before being rescued by a whaling ship. He was taken to Japan and then forced to work in a mine near Nagasaki. Two months later a nuclear bomb dropped just ten miles away . . . This is the extraordinary story of a young men, conscripted at nineteen and whose father was a Somme Veteran, survived not just one, but three close encounters with death - encounters which killed nearly all his comrades.

This book encapsulates the work of Chiharu Shiota and her exhibition at the Art Gallery of South Australia called 'Absence Embodied'. With this hard backed book I will, I'm sure, learn about the artist and what she is trying to express. I strongly encourage you to think about buying the book. Packing and postage were great.
