A Bubble by Geneviève Castrée

From the publisher: “[A] heartbreaking last work.”—Pitchfork"[A Bubble] is beautiful... The art Castrée made is testimony: to the joys of growing older, and to the price."—The Paris Review Artist and musician Geneviève Castrée’s last work–an expression of love, meant to last longer than words  Near the end of her life, surrounded by the nature and calm of Anacortes, Washington, Geneviève Castrée drew one final gift for her two-year-old daughter, the stunning board book A Bubble. Leaving behind a last note for a young child is an incomprehensible task; Castrée responds with grace and subtlety. Using precise, exquisite drawings of herself and her daughter, changes in their daily routines are depicted as a greater story unfolds. Castrée and her daughter float from page to page, encased in a bubble that protects them from the outside world. A contemplation of love and loss, A Bubble is a lasting declaration, a final memory, a comfort for others experiencing grief, and a beautiful archive
