Chained Books in Skylit Passageway

by Astrid West

Stark fluorescent light washes over a dark wooden bookshelf mounted within a glass-walled passageway. Heavy leather-bound volumes hang from iron chains, their spines facing outward in neat rows. Rain streaks the surrounding glass, blurring the modern steel and concrete geometry of Federation Square outside. The scene remains quiet in the pre-dawn hours, with no movement visible on the wet pavement below. Dust settles on the lower shelves, while the metal chains catch the harsh overhead glow. one drop of water rests on the bottom edge of the glass pane, refracting the interior light into a small, distorted spectrum against the dark wood.
