Book Depository

This is a building that had been a book depository in the 1980's. In the mid 1980's an arsonist struck and the building hasn't been touched since. Stacks of charred books are everywhere, it's very surreal. In parts where the roof has collapsed the books decomposed into dirt and trees grow in them. This is my first (well technically 3rd there were two bad ones before this) lith print.
