"The
Lives of Shadows"
by Barbara Hodgson
Hardcover,
185 pages, color photographs and illustrations
This
book is one of the most beautifully illustrated novels we’ve
ever seen!
In
the Mélange section of the July/August 2004 Somerset Studio,
Barbara Hodgson details her creative process, specifically focusing
on “The Lives of Shadows”. That article provides an insight
that will make the novel even more special.
The
novel itself focuses on Julian Beaufort and his experiences in Damascus,
both past and present. The story will captivate you, but the real
treasure of this book is it’s visual appeal. Ephemera and found
objects are utilized to give a sense of time and place to the pages.
There are vellum inserts that overlay pages to give them an entirely
new dimension. Photographs and sketches add to the visual excitement.
Whether your passion is the book arts and art journals or history
and literature, there is something in this fabulous book for you!
