Set against the rolling backdrop of a century of British history, this is a family portrait captured in snapshots. First there is William, the factory lad who loses his life in Gallipoli, then his son Billy, a champion cyclist who survives the D-Day Landings on a military bicycle, followed by his crippled son Will who becomes an Oxford academic in the 1960s, and finally his daughter Billie, an artist in contemporary London. Rich in drama and sensuous in detail, The Picture Book is a beautifully crafted story about fate and repetition and about the possibility of breaking free.
