A Thief Came in the Night

An Arrangement of Colors and Sense

by Jill Garroway

It can be as simple as coloring over a page with a marker or, as in this book, it can be done using digital photography and art to complement and enhance the story. The themes range from relationships to mental health, feminism to activism, plus a dose of general whimsy.

This book is a very internationally minded collection and - for a poetry book - quite a narrative one. It deals with lived experiences and intimacies to do with locations as diverse as China, various parts of Europe and the United States, where the protagonist is a young woman who is originally Croatian.

Spirit
