Summary

"A sunset. A famous writer at the door. A fire hydrant that casts a beguiling shadow. A sinister note from a hotel cleaner. An archival portrait that speaks across the decades. This book gathers some of the most captivating images from the Instagram pages of well-known artists, writers, musicians and archivists, each pursuing interests beyond what they're known for. This hugely entertaining Redstone collection will surprise you, make you laugh and see new things you might have missed" --
