'Alison is a haunting book complex and intimate. Lizzy Stewart has written and drawn the aches
and confusions of love and growing up with immense skill' Posy Simmonds Alison is newly married
barely twenty and struggling to find her place in the world. A chance encounter with an older
artist upturns her life and she forsakes convention and her working-class Dorset roots for the
thrumming art scene of London in the late seventies. As the thrill of bohemian romance leads
inevitably to disappointment Alison begins to find her own path - through art friendship and
love.
