Author Interview: Damian Dibben and "The Colour Storm"
Hello, listeners! I’ve got a special surprise for you this week. Instead of doing our typical Friday news cast, I’m sharing a recent discussion I had with author Damian Dibben about his latest novel, The Colour Storm. Set in the cutthroat art-world of Renaissance Venice, The Colour Storm is about the search for a new color. The daring young painter, Giorgione, is in the fight of his life to beat his rivals and find it first. It’s a searing tale of creation, ambition, rivalry and passion at one of the most seismic turning points in history, and it’s filled with characters both familiar and new, and is full of unexpected turns. It’s an excellent read and one that art lovers are sure to enjoy.
About the author:
Damian Dibben is the bestselling author of Tomorrow and the internationally acclaimed History Keepers series. He went to art school to study theatre design which led him first to become an actor, and then to become a screenwriter. Adapting books for the screen in Hollywood inspired him to turn his hand to writing his own books. His hugely successful series, The History Keepers, was written for children and young adults, and his subsequent novels, Tomorrow and The Colour Storm, are for adults. He found the writing and research for this novel so revelatory, that he returned to his studio to make a collection of artworks and furniture inspired by the book.
