Lockwood gained special access to Castro's inner circle and was granted a rare, in-depth interview in 1965, which covered a wide range of topics. The interviews and photographs, many of which have never been published before, provide a unique insight into Cuban life and politics during this period. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hardback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 368 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 September 2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Taschen GmbH\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe New York Times Book Review, published in 1967, praised Lee Lockwood's photographs of Cuba, which had been distorted by propaganda. Lockwood had gone to Cuba to cover the end of Batista's regime and found Fidel Castro, who granted him special access and free rein to explore the island. In 1965, Castro granted Lockwood a rare, in-depth interview, which was worth the anticipation and climaxed in a marathon seven-day interview that covered everything from racial issues in America to the Cuban Missile Crisis. Lockwood's interviews and observations are republished by TASCHEN alongside hundreds of photographs covering both the weeks Lockwood spent traveling with Castro and the years he documented Cuba's transformation throughout the 60s. The book includes a foreword and afterword by Latin America expert Saul Landau, which contextualize Lockwood's work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3472g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 348 x 268 x 38 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783836529983\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lee Lockwood,Saul Landau","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44103560069370,"sku":"9783836529983","price":58.56,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1668161508654_book.jpg?v=1668288308","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/lee-lockwood-castros-cuba-19591969-9783836529983","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
