The Wanderer

Peter Van den Ende, illustrated by Peter Van den Ende

This wordless book depicts a paper boat traveling across the ocean on a large-scale, surreal journey. Its images are made with detailed pen-and-ink drawings that recall the visual effects of Escher. The boat’s voyage is the book’s central action, presented entirely through illustration rather than text. The ocean setting, elaborate line work, and shifting surreal imagery carry the narrative from scene to scene.
