The Collector By John Fowles

His love story. Her nightmare.
 
Withdrawn, uneducated and unloved, Frederick collects butterflies. A chance lottery win enables him to make his ultimate dream a reality, and he captures what he considers to be one of nature's greatest rarities: Miranda Grey.  He hopes that she will come to understand him. With time. She will understand.

Hailed as the first modern psychological thriller, The Collector is the internationally bestselling novel that catapulted John Fowles into the front rank of contemporary novelists. This tale of obsessive love - the story of a lonely clerk who collects butterflies and of the beautiful young art student who is his ultimate quarry - remains unparalleled in its power to startle and mesmerise.

Formed in 2009 The Artisan Collective is an independent company passionate about producing new and exciting collaborative theatre.  They work to explore the truth of human experience and spirit through the examination and presentation of dramatic work. The Collector will be their sixth production and an Australian premiere.
