Book of Fools

Fools have been with us for centuries. Over 2,000 years ago, jester figures flourished in Chinese dynasties. They have appeared throughout Africa, India, the Middle East, Asia, and Europe, finding particular popularity in England. Photographer Nancy Hill gives fools a new life within the pages of this book, where they await a chance to entertain, enlighten, or enchant you. Here you’ll find fools in love, fools in politics, fools in religion, fools for animals, fools of all ages, and the inner fool.
