Having a Wonderful Time

In this collection of original writing, leading authors including J.G. Ballard, Charles Boyle, Nicci French, and Will Self create compelling narratives that challenge literary structure and strengthen the bond between image and text. Each story is told as though it were written on the back of a postcard, accompanied by images of beautiful buildings, stunning landscapes, and smiling faces. Featuring nearly eighty full-color illustrations, the collection invites readers to journey through a vivid tapestry of stories where words and visuals come together to spark the imagination.

Whether the locations are familiar or entirely fictional, the postcards offer glimpses into larger narratives, hints of entire lives unfolding. Having a Wonderful Time is a set of powerful love letters to language, storytelling, and the inspiration that it can spark in our hearts.
