Coming soon to a bookshelf near you, Glasgoscopy will be published by Vagabond Voices in October 2025. Thanks to Mark Mechan for the cover design (Red Axe design). vickihusband.wordpress.com/2025/07/22/g...
Book cover of Glasgoscopy by Vicki Husband showing an x-ray style image against a white background. The x-ray appears like a map of a city with brightly illuminated roads and a river and lung-like organic shapes against a darker blockish shapes.

Oslo! Yes there were Viking swords, gløg, stylish architecture, ice-cold fjord views & the Munch museum exceeded all expectations but who stole the show? Børre Sæthre at the Astrup Fearnley museum with a unicorn reclining in an electric blue retro-futuristic space lounge cocking its leg
Electric blue room with long space age curved light panels for windows and in the centre a white unicorn (the size of a horse) reclining on the floor with its leg cocked Retro futuristic space departure lounge with seats in rows and a view through a losenge shaped aperture to the room described above Railing on the side of a building leading the eye out to a sunset over a fjord with a cruise boat lit up in the distance Sugar pink square poster for a Munch display room entitled ‘Skygger’ (shadows in Norwegian) with cut out photos of Munch dotted around the poster between letters
