Renowned illustrator and children's book author Henrik Drescher turns his unique visual talents to creating letters for the dead - and mailing them. Finding out how far they get before they are returned, Drescher pieces together a vision of how the postal system works in the afterlife with engaging art and humorous inferences. Internationally renowned illustrator Henrik Drescher, author of Turbulence, has created a beautiful piece of bookmaking and a distinctive literary sortie: a collection of ingeniously illustrated letters to famous figures - all of them deceased - sent through the postal service. Each spread shows the decorative letters themselves and, when available, evidence of the lengthy journeys they took, from international postmarks to the final "Returned to Sender" stamp.
