Description
Atmospheric, sensual and dreamlike, this is a visual feast that expertly balances the melancholy of loss with a celebration of creativity and memory. Wreathed in mist, the early illustrations perfectly reflect the historical nature of the story and the fact that the valley is now inhabited only by ghosts. Pinfold’s use of colour, light and shade is exceptional; his use of small cameo illustrations combined with sweeping double page landscapes create a strong sense of place, whilst reflecting the large and small of community life. Like the natural world itself, this is a beautiful book created from thousands of tiny details and strokes.
