Set in a bleak future metropolis, the story follows Brigg, who resides in a dull, monochromatic environment. His curiosity leads him to borrow a forbidden book that reveals images of colorful flowers, introducing him to a world of vibrancy and beauty. The narrative is both haunting and deceptively simple, complemented by beautiful and mysterious illustrations that enhance the exploration of themes such as curiosity and the contrast between dullness and vibrancy.

Brigg lives in a small, grey room in a large, grey city. When he finds a book in the library labelled 'Do Not Read', he cannot resist borrowing it. In it, he comes upon pictures of bright, vibrant objects called flowers. A deceptively simple and haunting story, beautifully and mysteriously illustrated, set in a bleak future metropolis.
