Description
A Thousand Coloured Castles by Gareth Brookes is a graphic novel that explores the blurred lines between reality and perception. In this surreal world, the mundane coexists with the bizarre, as a woman's perceptions of her surroundings become increasingly distorted. Her husband's frustration grows as she becomes fixated on a mysterious situation in their neighbourhood, while her family struggles to cope with her erratic behaviour. But one small ally remains: her four-year-old grandson, who sees things from his own unique perspective. As the boundaries between reality and fantasy begin to dissolve, Brookes masterfully conjures a sense of unease and disorientation. With its distinctive artistic approach and witty storytelling, A Thousand Coloured Castles is a thought-provoking exploration of the human experience.
