Description

Graham's takes the colour blue and lifts it to a poetic dimension that explores a range of subjects every reader can relate to in Book of Blue. This collection masterfully delves into delight, fear, longing and awe through Graham's rendering of the 'blue' experience. Book of Blue is a bright voice in the colours of our existence.
