All components of this book were chosen to combine beautiful poetry and illustration in a comfortable and illustration in a comfortable rather than esoteric format. The choice of one color rather than full color was intentional. Printing the illustrations, text, and binding in dark earth brown conveys the feeling of the Indian culture which the author portrays in her haunting lyrics.
