Andy Ashdown Design has provided the design for a new book by Louise Franklin.
Putting away her career-woman’s Filofax, the English-born 25-year-old, living in Bordeaux with her French husband, Eric, takes a plain notebook and starts to write her hilarious and often moving diary. It is to be shared with their new baby, Benjamin. She chronicles his birth (“the best product of European Union – who arrived with a yell but no cricket bat or string of onions”) and the early days of parenthood, when she and Eric veer between exhaustion and elation (“Ben’s first smile was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen – even if it was at 5.30am”).
Louise Franklin’s enchanting and witty book sparkles with humour,
warmth and a sheer love of life. A tour-de-force of comic writing, it
tells the tale of 12 months when the author’s life changes forever.
