Since the success of his first published collection, Rakuen (1985), Kazuyoshi Miyoshi has made a lifelong project out of his series photographing rakuen, or paradises, all around the world. The series has taken him to Tahiti, the Maldives, and more; now, this latest volume records his journeys to sixteen Japanese islands, including Okinawa, in the arc that stretches southwest across the seas between Kyushu and Taiwan. The rich, finely detailed images, taken using the latest photographic equipment, shine with a kaleidoscopic beauty that shows Miyoshi at new heights in his powers of expression.
