The House in the Night

Summary

A bedtime poem follows a key that opens a house, a light inside, a book, a bird, and ultimately the whole night sky before circling back home. Krommes works in scratchboard, etching white lines into black and adding touches of golden watercolor that glow like lamplight against the dark. Written by Susan Marie Swanson, the cumulative verse and luminous art make a calm, comforting journey into and out of the night.
