A Whole World

A thoroughly original book featuring only pictures. With colourful paintings, drawings, prints, sculptures and colour photographs, including the work of children, of everyday people and objects, A Whole World evokes a world of contrasts and interrelations. Each image is related to the images before and after it. Sometimes funny, always vivid, the images open the way to limitless ideas and interpretations — about the nature of things, how they are connected and how we picture them. A feast for the eyes and for the mind! Winner of two prestigious book awards in France: Prix Sorcieres & Prix Octogone.

'For cot or coffee table. Hundreds of wordless pages. An amazing lesson in looking.'
Sunday Times

'Some pictures fit opposite each other with ease, some challenge the perceptions, some confuse - but all intrigue. (A Whole World) could be used in most schools as a starting point for creative writing. It is a spur to the imagination.'
Carousel

'A kind of visual stream-of-consciousness. You could give this to a six-month-old baby or a 21-year-old art student. It is just the most desirable book in the world.'
