Press Reviews:
"The most engrossing book I’ve read in an age...It offers a back-room view of Jarman’s career as well as his musings on art and film...Jarman is the sort of troublemaking visionary who one day may be compared with Blake." —Time Out London
"Moving, poetic, inspirational." —New Musical Express
"The rich, raw, kaleidoscopic finale of a personal and artistic statement." —Kirkus
