Burn the book


You heard about german history. In the middle of the city, in the middle of a big square, near a very famous 5* hotel, there is a space, you can't see it because it is underneath the pavement. It is a memorial. At the first sight you're wondering yourself "but what are doing white empty bookshelves under the street" ? It's where they burned the books in 1933. It's a strong image. A bookshelf without books : what happened to them ? they disapeared. They don't exist anymore.
