Susie Hagon has published her second book of photographs:
In The Houses Of The Muses.
It’s a collection of portraits of Australian identities and
scenes from Alexandria in Egypt where Susie has been involved in the project Bibliotheca
Alexandrina, the ambitious scheme to re-build the fabled Royal Library of
Alexandria reputedly burnt to the ground by Julius Caesar in 48BC.
The project was the brainchild of Egyptian noble and
Alexandrian born Prince Lorenzo Montesini, or to give him his full title : Prince
Giustiniani, Count of the Phanaar, Knight of Saint Sophia and Baron
Alexandroff.
