Quote by Frederick Franck

“Everyone thinks he knows what a lettuce looks like. But start to draw one and you realise the anomaly of having lived with lettuces all your life but never having seen one, never having seen the semi-translucent leaves curling in their own lettuce way, never having noticed what makes a lettuce a lettuce rather than a curly kale.”

Her book will be a clarion call to bring our broken, holy, troubled, and glorious life to the author of all stories: Jesus.”
