Growing up in 1970s Suffolk in a crumbling giant of a house with wild, tangled gardens, Alex Monroe was left to wreak havoc by invention. Without visible parental influence, but with sisters to love him and brothers to fight for him, he made nature into his world. Creation became a compulsion, whether it was go-carts and guns, cross-bows and booby-traps, boats, bikes or scooters. And then, it was jewellery.\u003cbr\u003eFrom full-out warfare waged against the local schoolboys to the freedom found in daredevil Raleigh bike antics to the delicacies of dress-making and the most intricate designs for jewellery, T\u003ci\u003ewo Turtle Doves \u003c\/i\u003etraces the intimate journey of how an idea is transformed from a fleeting thought into an exquisite piece of jewellery. It is about where we find our creativity, how we remember and why we make the things we do.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.0pt; line-height: 115%;\"\u003eBook Information:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.0pt; line-height: 115%;\"\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePublished: 01\/04\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Art, Biography, Memoir, Nonfiction\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePages: 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDimensions: 223 x 157mm\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #c00000;\"\u003eNote: Remaindered books or remainders are printed books that are over stocks and are sold at reduced prices.
