An absolute bonafide, essential Rough Trade exclusive right here. We are so lucky to exclusively present to you one of the most visually arresting and thought provoking books we have seen in a long, long time from our good friend Tan Gillies. Created top to bottom by the man himself it depicts a lifetime of chaos in the making - a no holds barred look at a dark and intoxicating world through his mind's eye. Projected through the hazy lens of substance abuse, vandalism, art, music, poetry, grief, love and family suffering to an eventual end of hope and recovery. Cold Bones is not a normal book and doesn’t really fit into a description of any kind, it has to be seen to be understood. A visual representation of the repercussions of growing up surrounded by domestic violence and addiction, and the creative and not so creative avenues of escape that come along with that. First released in March 2020 as a run of 100 which sold out in less than a day, this revised edit includes 30 unseen pages, and a new foreword. Only 500 copies available globally.
