Another lovely edition from Cornwall’s very own Ancient Magic Books.

Taken in 2023 on a three week road trip around the West Coast of America, James Meredew’s The Shady Motel & Other American Monuments is an offbeat, mostly people-less view of a tired-looking American landscape.

“I found it very strange how little people walked around the towns, it gave you an eery feeling every-time you entered a new place, I tried to capture some of that when walking around taking photos” – James Meredew
