"In this standalone follow-on to What Color Is Night?, a narrator invokes early morning sounds as the world begins to stir. . . . Snider’s spreads . . . have the feel of silkscreen images. . . . Snider’s creation uncovers everyday wonders by re-creating a single sense with language, form, and color."
