“Every page of this glorious book pushes you to the next. It forces your imagination to roam as your mind re-creates old moments in time. I will spend many more hours devouring every image. It’s magical.”
“This book is exceptional. What a labor of love. The details of these beautifully broken places are amazing. I just keep thinking of what these people went through to build these beautiful places. I love all the details of what was left behind....the cups, books, hymnals......what a special gift for you to share.”
“My gift arrived in perfect condition today. What a beautifully haunting book!”
“I have become enchanted with your book, which now sits squarely on my living room coffee table. I plan to order a few more to give as holiday gifts.”
“I now understand why your book, “A Beautifully Broken Virginia”, is sold out at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts gift shop. The book offers an amazing journey through our state, reflected beautifully in the houses, buildings and places that were once inhabited and now neglected and forgotten. Thank you for the wonderful photographs and epitaphs in the book.”
This photographic coffee table book takes you on a visually captivating journey through Virginia's abandoned afterworld. It was created out of my emotional obligation to commemorate the beautifully abandoned structures throughout our state that have offered so much to the inhabitants that once occupied them, but have since been deserted and left to die. This 120 page art book offers 80+ powerful and haunting images of houses, churches, schools, sanatoriums, diners and more, all of which have fallen into a beautiful state of disrepair. The images are complemented by 20+ pages of commemorative poetry and cryptic graphics, which offer hints as to their respective histories or locales.
