OLIVER JEFFERS (THE ILLUSTRATORS) (HB)

An overview of the life and work of Oliver Jeffers, the Belfast-raised illustrator, bookmaker, painter, designer, and campaigner. Still only in his forties, he has published an array of hugely popular books. His regular exploration of existential issues, his passion for the environment, and his quest to understand humanity’s major challenges has exerted a major influence on the practice of authorial picture book-making. This is the first book to focus closely on Jeffers’s practice as an illustrator, offering an in-depth analysis of his processes, influences, styles and subjects as they have changed over time.
