"What could I say about Yemen that did it justice. I tried in my journal to work it honestly. I tried with 60 rolls of black and white 120 film to translate the experience. That hot, spare and beautiful Ramadan.No eating or drinking anything between sunrise and sunset. The faithful waiting for the moment." (© Max PAM)
"Part journal, part photographic document, Max PAM's 'Ramadan in Yemen' presents stunning black and white photographs interspersed with text about about his experience in Yemen during the Islamic observance. Handwritten text on cream colored paper decorated with stamps punctuate the images with splashes of color, making for a personal and engaging look at the country and the hospitality of its people during this important month." (publisher's note, © Editions Bessard, 2011)
"Max PAM was twenty years old when he left Australia, in 1969, to work as a photography assistant. His interest in Islamic culture and history eventually led him to Yemen, where, in 1993, he spent the month of Ramadan travelling throughout the country.
While visiting Shibam, Taiz, Al Mukallah, and Sanaa, he shot sixty rolls of black-and-white film with his medium-format camera, and kept a journal to document his journey." (© Jehan Jillani, The New Yorker)
