Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

The sum of the book is really a hotel of my own imagination constructed from several hotels I have worked in and some I've stayed in as a paying guest. In reality these hotels bear little or no resemblance to my actual pictures. It just depends on how you look at things. In my experience heaven and hell are places right here on earth, and you can stay in either one.

Reseña del editor:

"Chris Shaw spent ten years working in london hotels, all the while using his camera to both document the hotels' unexpected human spectacles and keep himself awake through the long hours of his shift. Whether capturing prostitutes waiting between 'Johns', weary hotel staff, the inebriated and profligate guests, or the details of the hotels' faded grandeur, Shaws' images transcend the physical boundaries of a place, and instead capture a state of mind in which few people would choose to stay more than anight" - Publisher's website (www.twinpalms.com)
