Blow by Blow by Detmar Blow

"One of the most original and influential people of the twentieth century to me and many others." --Alexander McQueen



With a career spanning thirty years in fashion, as an influential voice at Vogue, Tatler, and The Sunday Times Magazine--as well as a legacy as one of the industry's kingmakers for discovering Philip Treacy, Alexander McQueen, Sophie Dahl, and Hussein Chalayan--Isabella Blow had been a pillar of couture culture until her suicide in 2007 left the fashion world mourning one of its finest friends and patrons. Blow by Blow is a captivating journey through Issie's life, a one-of-a-kind look at her unforgettable impact on the fashion world, and a moving exploration of her inspiring and ultimately tragic tale.

Tom Sykes has always been a writer and a motor enthusiast. The Trip combines his developed writing talents with his self-imposed challenge of eventually fixing each of the fifty-nine antique cars he has acquired since he was fifteen years old. Tom's daily credo of Fix or Repair Daily or Walk has resulted in a slew of amusing misadventures. The Trip combines his life experiences, inventiveness, and love of rhymed lines to create a realistic and humorous original work. Tom's first full-length book, The Trip: A Modern Odyssey, is his first full-length book, despite having published newspaper pieces, short tales, and poems.
