Description: Banjir! Banjir!?(flood! flood!) is a cry often heard with increasing frequency in Jakarta. The city is sinking, the sea level is rising and heavy rainfall causes rivers, clogged by rubbish and silt to burst their banks. Since 2014 Cynthia Boll has been documenting what it?s like to live in Sinking City Jakarta.These pictures are now bundled in a book.0The book is in two parts. In the first part five leading experts describe the situation in Jakarta. The second part is devoted to eight photo-reportages.
