Additional notes:
Umbrella: "Insomnia by Richard Russell is a eulogy, a tribute to a friend who died needlessly. In this little book, there are little jewels balanced by the chilling imagery of nightmare and pain. The images of swimmers swirl around the highlighted organs, needles, flowers, speeding cars which crash into each other as Brahms's Lullaby is 'heard' in the background through clouds. An artist's goodbye."
