Ed Vere @edvere.bsky.social · 30/01/2025Last year I illustrated a wonderful book of 12 long-ish poems by @michaelrosenyes.bsky.social, ‘Out of this World’. The poems are profound, thought-provoking and funny - a dream of a job for me to illustrate. Of course, I fully recommend it! @harpercollins.bsky.social @tombonnick.bsky.social 36011

Ed Vere @edvere.bsky.social · 20/11/2024I’m biased because Chris is a friend… BUT… this book is astonishing. An absolute masterpiece. A fascinating exploration into what it is to be human, what it is to be creative, how we communicate and how we develop technologies from stone axes to AI… and beyond. Political and thought-provoking. A+⭐️ 1101
