Before birds sang, before leaves fell, there lived an old lady and an orphan boy she called Son. They lived alone, deep in the forest, with no one to watch over them except the trees. Their struggles unfold in Fall, a letterpress, limited-edition children’s story. The linocuts and line illustrations reflect the allegorical telling of the “first fall” and also underscore the themes of the story—love, sacrifice and renewal.
“This is a great tactile experience. Visually as well.” Archie Ferguson
