Description: Reading Tableaux was like revisiting old haunts or places I would have liked to have haunted. It sparked visceral sense memories and made me nostalgic. And the ending Midori It is 1984, the year of Ronald Reagan's re - election and the Brighton bomb; one can sense revolution in the air. Oliver Woolf is a thirty - something journalist well - connected socially and an instinctual conservative whose comfortable routine is upset by a chance encounter in the rain. The girl in the rain is Candy who is not what she first seems. Over the summer Oliver and Candy form an unlikely friendship and when she stops calling on him he sets out to find her. His search leads him through a labyrinthine underworld that extends from London to Manhattan. Along the way he meets someone who will change his life forever. A late - twentieth century Rake's Progress Oliver's journey confronts issues that are still largely taboo. Illustrated with photographs by Steve Diet Goedde Tableaux combines art and storytelling in a new hybrid form.
