- Designed by Fletcher himself, the book offers a vibrant description of an artist at work
- Includes an interview with Fletcher and three additional essays, giving insight into the designer's philosophy and process
'Fletcher probably gets bored with always being on the receiving end of praise, but his work is simply terrific - buy this book.' (FX)
