They are the ruins of modern times: Half-fallen palaces of leisure, idle factories, dilapidated hospitals and deserted military sites exude a morbid charm. Irish journalist Ciarán Fahey has photographed the most fascinating and spectacular of these abandoned places in and around Berlin and researched their histories. His pictures and words reveal the relics of a mysterious world caught between the past and present. More than 200 large-format color photos with texts in English and German.
