I can’t wait to hear the first reactions of readers who’ll claim one of the rare copies.ĮSMoA, Los Angeles: The El Segundo based Experimentally Structured Museum of Art is pleased to collaborate again with Cornelia for the upcoming "Experience 53: SCINTILLA", April 27-September 16, 2023. I am so thrilled to hear Inkheart being sung by Alice’s lines and colors. I have often wished to live in an age where most books were illustrated and the word and the image always sang together. They have taken me step by step with them on this truly illuminating adventure and even respected my wish to use bindings that don’t claim the lives of calves or other creatures.Īll copies will be signed by me and more importantly by Alice Cao, the illustrator who will make the pages breathe with her art. There is such passion in their bookmaking. I am sure it will be so beautiful that it will make readers wonder whether Meggie’s father Mo, who was not only a legend as a robber but also as a the bookbinder, made the 626 copies with his own hands.īooks Illustrated is the kind of publisher every writer dreams of. The 11th one:)īeing an illustrator myself I am so thrilled that for its twentieth anniversary Inkheart will be honored with a handbound and lushly illustrated edition. O yes, in the evening Franziska and I always watched Dr Who together. It was the first time I worked on a book edit while the illustrator was sitting next door. Her husband Mike wrote a recipe for each plant AND Franziska Blinde, one of my Artists in Residence here at Volterra came to illustrate the book at my house. Then my daughter Anna translated it into German. I wrote this book in English so Tammi could read and comment and add her ideas.
They’ll make Caspia go in search of ten plants, but she’ll find so much more on her adventures in the Green Kingdom. It is the story of ten letters in a drawer, written by a blind girl named Rosalinde to her sister Minna and of the riddles they contain. So this book tells the story of Caspia who has to spend a summer in Brooklyn, although she would prefer to stay with her friends. Non fiction? Fiction? I think it was a comment from her husband Chris that made us realize this should also be a story, as that’s what in a way we both are. It took Tammi and me quite a while to figure out what kind of book this should be. We became friends and decided to make a book together that would inspire the readers to take a closer look at Green Kingdom and to maybe make some of them fall in love with plants.
I loved the way Tammi wrote about plants and she came to visit me. It all began when I read a book by Tammi Hartung, an ethno botanist and herb farmer from Colorado. This has been a very unusual book to work on for many reasons. Will be published in Germany in April 2023.
