Unforgotten


Tohby Riddle - 2012
    It's a book about light and dark, doubt and faith, friendship and compassion.Riddle’s representations of the strangeness of the urban landscape evoke a sense of movement that has been captured – and stilled momentarily – as if by the lens of an old-fashioned camera. Whenever we spend time with it, the spare text and mesmerising images have a way of calming the room around us as if there issomething peaceful settling over us as we read. It is a triumph of wonderful quiet beauty.Unforgotten feels like a classic in the making with its thought-provoking edgy surrealism, plea for compassion and sense of the absurd, while leaving lots of room for individual, imaginative interpretation."Reading this book is like being quietly ushered into another dimension by winged strangers, a place beyond the tread of normal earth-bound language. Ephemeral as a feather, timeless as a rock, and as true as both, Unforgotten is a magical experience."– Shaun Tan, author of The Arrival and Tales from Outer Suburbia
