Reviews
Sensitively edited, Chris Fite-Wassilak's interviews have been formed into standalone monologues that, together with Ollie Harrop's intimate photographs, feel direct and personal, as though we are visiting these artists in their homes or studios. * Times Literary Supplement *
... the glossy, magazine-like publication gives a platform to older painters, poets, illustrators ... there are nuggets of wisdom scattered throughout ... One of the book's great strengths is Harrop's sensitive and insightful photographs * Studio International *
