Zone Access Closing: Under 40 Limited Editions Remain

Fewer than 40 copies remain of the Strugatsky Brothers’ cult classic tale of first contact.

Designed to be as strange as the story itself, this Folio slips from a lenticular slipcase that shimmers like the warped air of the Zone. Inside, the text is printed in dark green ink, with Dave McKean’s artwork weaving through the pages – a visual journey from eerie 1970s-inspired graphics and unsettling topographies to painterly visions of terrifying encounters. Five exclusive prints and cold-foiled endpapers that catch the light complete a book that doesn’t just tell a story – it pulls you into its bleak, uncanny world.

Only 600 copies of this Limited Edition are in existence and only 40 remain ... your chance to step inside the Zone is vanishing fast.

Edges of the Zone

The warped air within the Zones ripples and shimmers, as if reality itself is being tugged out of shape. The page edges are printed to echo this unsettling effect, capturing the eerie distortion in every detail.

Relics Left Behind

Four green prints with designs drawn from the artist showcase relics of the Zone, from a nut to the Golden Sphere. An exclusive white print offers something stranger still: a composite image inspired by the alien debris – a monkey, a ripple in the air and a marker pole lost in time ...

'Visualizing this place is in some ways like trying to bottle magnetism, but I am still compelled to come back here every day'
