Prepare to have your conscience shaken
Precision and a sense of artistry . Murphy's photographs have an ability to capture war without judgement . An uplifting exploration of a brutal subject
Astonishing . Mesmerising . By turns harrowing, evocative, poignant and, yes, even humorous. Ultimately, the words and pictures are testament to undiminished human resilience . Spellbinding . Fascinating and occasionally disturbing
Excellent . The imagery suggests an unhealing national bruise, one still so tender that blood might flow at any time ... At once celebratory and deflated .The Hollow of the Handis a sincere and sincerely impressive collection
Murphy's stories and films illuminate Harvey's crisply enunciated poems as well as his own arresting images . Punchy and vivid
Their combined reportage consists of a series of stark images, lyrical and visual . Pictures of airstrike aftermaths, and Afghans with faces like novels ****
A well-produced collaboration. Both contain striking imagery. Murphy - who has won seven World Press Photo awards - has an original eye and a storyteller's sense of an unfolding narrative
This book is as handsomely produced as its subjects are in dire straits . Heartfelt and serious . Every picture tells a story . Murphy's eye unites one subject with the next. He is especially good at taking photographs of figures in a landscape overwhelmed by the vastness. I loved the extraordinary pictures of Afghanistan's beautiful, hostile and seemingly endless horizons
The Hollow of the Hand, P. J. Harvey's and Seamus Murphy's book of poems and photographs, is haunting and elusive. Lyrical, song-like, declarative, the poems have a devastating directness; the photos are direct in a different key
Careful reportage, combing the debris of war and strife for significant detail, meaningful resonances ... Charts a terrifying landscape of lost children and tidal waste, people discarded along with syringes and stray dogs . She communicates what she's seen with crisp concision, a few strong charcoal lines ****
A stirring art book for the rare soul who reaches back
Emphasises the resilience and continuation of life amidst immense turmoil . Full of empathic insight and the central focus is on "common humanity" . In her collaborations with Murphy, Harvey is not only asking difficult questions, but pushing against the restrictions usually placed on artists to stay within a certain remit or medium
Extraordinary . A remarkable portfolio of images shared with the audience that, at times, have the ability to draw out the humour in the haunting . Deeply poignant ****
