The Boy in The Oak

Last Wednesday Liberty welcomed a fantastical branch of the fash pack to their 4th floor in honour of Jessica Albarn and her new book 'The Boy in The Oak', £12.99 and exclusively at Liberty until September [stocks will run out].

The beautiful book is a fantastical fairy tale of a young boy and the magic of nature, the pages are littered with illustrious illustrations and charming text. Double layers of acetate give the book an enigmatic edge over an average 'beach read' hard back.

The varnished wooden floors and unique pieces of furniture that line the walls of Liberty's fourth floor set the atmosphere perfectly for such a pretty story, the wonderland of department stores.

Damon Albarn, Jamie Hewlett, and Daisy and Pearl Lowe were among some of the most established guests at the evening, showing their ever lasting support for the arts.

Jessica Albarn will be back instore on the 23rd of June for a book signing to kick off the release.
