Aman in Amsterdam finds himself irresistibly drawn to Vermeer's Woman in BlueReading a Letter, studying it in search of answers to his problems. Butthere is more to the Woman in Blue than those who gaze upon her realise, andshe has a story of her own to tell. A masterful exploration of the intersectionbetween art, artist and viewer

Hope Never Knew Horizon fictionalises the origins of three cultural objects associated with hope - the blue whale skeleton hung in London's Natural History Museum, Emily Dickinson's poem 'Hope is the thing with feathers', and G. F. Watts' painting 'Hope' - telling their stories from the perspective of someone marginalised from history.

Set in Paris, this atmospheric tale delicately intertwines three connected narratives and timelines, interspersed with observations of the colour blue. A new addition to the Fairlight Moderns.
