An attempt to map some of the features of the cultural landscape while challenging the current orthodoxy that culture and faith inevitably exist in opposition. The Invisible Province seeks to show that modern culture cannot sever itself from questions of transcendence and faith and nor can faith distance itself from culture. In surveying the fault lines between culture and faith, The Invisible Province reimagines this relationship and suggests avenues for mature dialogue.

Frank Cottrell-Boyce
Frank Cottrell-Boyce. Do you recognise the name? If you don't, you may well recognise some of the films he has written screenplays for: 24 Hour Party People, Welcome to Sarajevo, A Cock and Bull Story, Millions. Frank Cottrell-Boyce is one of Britain's foremost screenwriters. He is, also, a fascinating example of how faith and culture can live harmoniously within a creative talent.
This post may look insubstantial (because it is insubstantial) but that's because Frank Cottrell-Boyce is more naturally eloquent than I could ever hope to be. For the next forty five minutes you are in for a treat and joy:
