Fictions of a moment. A book of revelations in miniature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn this hauntingly beautiful collaboration between writer Chips Hardy and illustrator Oscar Grillo, \u003cem\u003eThe Full Story\u003c\/em\u003e offers a genre-defying sequence of one-page narratives—each a glimpse into a life, a death, a joke, or an epiphany. Hardy's tales are lean and luminous, by turns wry, tragic, surreal and piercingly humane. Grillo's artwork answers them with a visual world just as unpredictable—delirious, tender, uncanny, sublime.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTogether, they compose a new kind of storytelling: elliptical, illustrated literature for the fractured age. One story per spread. One image. One moment. And yet, across these fragments, a deeper coherence gathers: the shock of being alive, the absurdity of the everyday, the poignancy of what passes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHardy—co-creator of the acclaimed television series \u003cem\u003eTaboo\u003c\/em\u003e, and winner of Writers' Guild and British Comedy Awards—writes with the compression of poetry and the perspective of a playwright. Grillo—winner of Cannes, BAFTA, and Oscar accolades—delivers a visual counterpoint that's as layered and enigmatic as the tales themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA work of rare invention and emotional scope, \u003cem\u003eThe Full Story\u003c\/em\u003e invites you to read slowly, look closely, and return often.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46851972104428,"sku":"9781967751402","price":120.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/d8c6d8d67f778dd55b731e7435d74fbd.jpg?v=1759168438"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/chips-hardy.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
