Taylor Holden
Dear Librarian,
Benjamin Disraeli once said that an author talking about their own books was almost as bad as a mother who talks of her own children. Well, forgive me for bragging about my new baby.
Paper is what first inspired me--or rather, an artist friend talking about it. "I possess the last supply of the very watercolour paper that JMW Turner used," he told me gravely, "When it is gone, I shall die." He kept his word, and left me with an image so powerful that THE SENSE OF PAPER was conceived with the passionate character of artist Alan Matheson.
Now, my child is born. This is a book rich in history and war, love and obsession, yet intertwined with a thriller's mysterious undercurrent.
