Rachel Sender invites fourteen Rotterdam-based illustrators to take an unconventional journey through the city’s most popular and overlooked areas, resulting in a colourful collection of illustrated personal stories. Be it rousing commentary on the burgeoning gentrification of neighbourhoods, nostalgic yearnings or a poetic declaration of love for Rotterdam’s surrounding green spaces, the illustrators’ idiosyncratic creations for the book pay homage to the city while addressing the power that illustration holds in unearthing memories, triggering emotional undercurrents and bringing communities together through evocative imagery and compelling storytelling.

The first 50 orders are eligible for a free postcard pack containing 14 A6 prints featuring a selection of illustrations from the book.

All texts appear in English and Dutch.
