Photographer Rebecca Litchfield captures many abandoned locations,
which were either part of the Soviet Union or occupied satellite
states during this period of history, including forgotten towns,
factories, prisons, schools, monuments, hospitals, theatres,
military complexes, asylums & death camps across the former
communist states. These photographs deliver a compelling narrative
of both moral bankruptcy and flawed ideology. Featuring stunning
imagery throughout, this compelling road-trip through the old USSR,
breathes new life into these forgotten places, finding both beauty
and meaning in their post-apocalyptic decay. Extended essays by
Tristi Brownett, Neill Cockwill and Professor Owen Evans, offer
considerable contextual depth to the locations imbuing them with a
wealth of connection and wonder. By virtue of its holistic
approach, the book also explores how and why these once thriving
communities became abandoned, whether by natural disaster, man-made
catastrophe or simply through the march of time.
