Shafran, Nigel
When I put RuthBook together, I looked at how people reacted to the sequence. I wanted the book sequence to work like an emotional wave. That's also the case with my later book ‘Dad's Office', which is more melancholic. I wanted it left quite open in that the subject is my father's furniture and bits and pieces in his office and I didn't want to entirely spell out what it meant to me, but to leave it ambiguous. That's what I do. It really is, that's probably the most important thing to say about my work - it's just what I do.
