The Unwinding Deck: An Illustrated Meditation on Life, Death, and Art

A gorgeous set of 100 postcards by acclaimed artist Jackie Morris

From the beloved artist and writer Jackie Morris—the creative genius behind The Lost Words, The Lost Spells (both with Robert MacFarlane), and The Unwinding—a beautifully designed set of cards.

The front of each card features one of Jackie’s paintings from The Unwinding; the back of each has a short quote, a spell, or a poem from the book, plus space for you to write your own message, or to draw or paint your own addition.

In Jackie Morris’s own words, use them to “spread peace and beauty to the people you love and care about.”

Inspired by dreams and wishes, these cards will ease the soul and offer respite wherever they land. Designed by Alison O’Toole, who helped Jackie create the original book and the award-winning phenomenon that is The Lost Words, this postcard box will be an elegant work of art in its own right, as useful as it is beautiful.
