Soft cover. Zustand: As New. 1st Edition. Wrappers. 750 copies printed. "On the island of Hoy, to the west of Orkney, a woman sat one evening in the common room of the outdoor centre, sewing a cover for a stone. The small black stone was one she had picked up on a walk the group had made to the beach, a week or so previously, near the start of their short stay on the island. She gave the finished object to a friend she had made there, on leaving, a memory of time well spent . . ." Striking and original account - an "artists' book" of fragments and close-up recollections, illustrated with the author's watercolours and drawings - of "several years in the life of a woman, during which her father was diagnosed with and died from cancer". What are human relationships? What is the nature of art? Amy Todman is an artist, based in Glasgow, and shares with her publisher, Alistair Peebles, an interest in Ian Hamilton Finlay. Her book is subtle, elegant and affecting.
