The theme of the 2026 Redstone Diary is the Imagination with over 50 illustrations, an introduction and texts chosen by Julian Barnes

The 2026 edition of the beloved cult diary celebrates and cultivates our imaginations

The Redstone 2026 Diary is a volume of enchantment. From ancient machines to measure the world, to works of fantastical fiction, and hallucinatory images of the incomprehensible, Imagining is a call to action for dreamers, artists and creators, with an introduction from Julian Barnes.
This is the 39th edition of the beloved cult diary and includes a child's cautionary tale, William Blake's angels, spectral photography, a poem from Emily Dickinson, philosophical warnings and John Lennon's lyrics: each week is a prompt to contemplate the boundaries of the everyday. Beautifully designed with a pocket at the front for keeping notes, the diary also has a special supplement of images taken from Al-Jazari's Book of Knowledge of Ingenious Mechanical Devices.
Contributors include: Lewis Carroll, Roz Chast, Ted Hughes, Bodys Isek Kingelez, Kerry James Marshall, Yinka Shonibare, Posy Simmonds, Stephen Sondheim.
