GOLDEN

Three women. Three stories. One very special reason for bringing them together.

GOLDEN was created for Mel.

Mel is currently undergoing cancer treatment, and this book is a way of surrounding her with love, creativity and practical support when she needs it most.

Bringing together three interconnected short stories by Leilah Odayan and photography by Amanda Lasperini and Melisa Tokalak, GOLDEN explores womanhood, desire, friendship, grief, resilience and the messy, beautiful business of being alive.

It celebrates women in all their complexity: the things we survive, the people who hold us together, and the beauty that exists even in the darkest moments.

But more than anything, it is an act of love.

A limited first edition of just 150 copies.

Where your money goes

All proceeds after printing costs go directly towards Mel’s treatment and living expenses, easing some of the financial pressure while she focuses on her health.
