Book Description
Using his astonishing illustrative skills, Dave McKean creates a world of his own, and then tells stories from it in his own distinctly skewed style. In The Coast Road', a desperate wife searches for her husband, whose ghostly image keeps appearing in mysterious and unexpected ways; 'Black Holes' tells the true story of the tragic consequences of medical malpractice in a Chinese village. Deftly balancing tragedy and humour, McKean's imagination is once again allowed to run riot via the medium of his drawings, paintings, photographs and digital creations.'

Book Description
McKean uses mixed media to take readers on a journey unlike any other: "The Coast Road" follows a desperate wife trying to find her missing husband, whose ghostly image appears in unexpected ways. "Black Holes," written by an anonymous journalist, concerns the politically sensitive true story of Chinese villagers induced by the government to sell their blood, only to be infected with AIDS through poor medical practice.
