A. L. Sestier is an author and illustrator whose fiction transports you to other worlds. The stories are timeless, occupying a dimension of their own. Each book has meaning and purpose woven into it that can change a reader — emptying them out so that they can be filled up again with a new, unique perspective.
Growing up in the English countryside, her imagination kept her company so that she walked with tigers and blew bubble worlds around her head. She listened to audiobooks on repeat until even her silence was filled with stories.
Each of her characters is flawed but they are fighting for something greater than themselves that gives them a different sort of wholeness. Their fragile strength and bitter optimism is what makes them feel real. They are common place heroes who shine in the darkness as guiding lights for our everyday heroisms that make our own existence have a purpose.
