The Unwinding

UK Publisher: Unbound

A counterpoint to the speed of modern life, a catalyst for dreaming, a harbor for lost souls, a spur for storytelling. As the edges of dreams blur, so the book moves into a space that opposes the anxiety of modern life. For children who find each day a struggle, with worries and cares weighing their hearts from school, home, the world. For adults in the same boat. A space in these pages to rest, an antidote to dystopia and a small song of hope.
Image rich, full bleed images on alternate pages, beautifully designed words to accompany them. Words to slide the image into minds fractured by the days experiences, by the times we live in, to smooth anxieties, rest the soul, provide escape. Within each painting are tangled many stories, as many stories as there are readers’ perspectives, all over the world.
