520 _a"One of the many striking things about Egypt's peaceful 25 January Revolution as seen in Cairo's Tahrir Square was the creativity and eloquence of the signs many protesters carried, ranging from the bitterly determined to the scathingly funny. Avid photographer Karima Khalil here gathers images taken by herself and others from the first eighteen days of the revolution, showing their great variety: from simple and repeated Irhal ('Leave'), written in a hundred different ways, to messages drawing on popular tradition, rhyming slogans, songs, puns, and jokes, as well as moving tributes to those killed by the security forces. Largely captured by protesters themselves, these images are a compelling visual record of a people in a unique historical movement"--Book flap.
