FlipSide Encounter 2:
Julia Blackburn,
Esther Freud,
Chloe Aridjis
Meditations on art, beauty and
memory feature in the latest books
by three outstanding authors. Esther
Freud’s Mr Mac and Me offers
glimpses of Charles Rennie Mackintosh
as he settles in a village by the Suffolk
coast. In Threads, Julia Blackburn
embarks on a personal exploration of
the life and work of Norfolk fisherman-
turned-artist John Craske. Asunder,
by UK-based Mexican novelist Chloe
Aridjis, ponders the stories that lie
beneath a painting’s surface.
