About

Deadfall is the second book from Max Ferguson, and his imprint Oval Press. It is a photographic novel that weaves together literature and photography, inviting the reader to slide in free-fall through the life, dreams and memories of its faulted protagonist. We follow him back to a small village in rural France, apparently devoid of life, where he struggles to write, smokes too much weed and comes to terms with his isolation and insomnia. What is he running from and why did he turn up in the small village in the middle of nowhere unannounced?
