Alongside Mathilde Vaveau’s photographs, Alice Lognonné’s short story is the erratic evocation of a trip in Ireland. Between Belfast, capital of Northern Ireland, and Coleman Island – a minuscule enclave belonging to the Republic of Ireland, the memories and thoughts of the narrator create a broken set of reflections about borders, fences and transitional spaces. This story is an intimate call for the experience of mobility.

About the Publisher
ESSARTER Éditions is an association specialised in photo-documentary books. Its creation was born from the meeting between Mathilde Vaveau, photographer, and Lou Reichling, graphic-designer. Paul de Lanzac, photographer, joined them a few months later. Based on their common interests – books, documentary photography and literature – and their complementary skills, their main objective is to create books where texts and images meet and sometimes confront each other.
