The Word Tree
I confess I have spent too many minutes gazing at the image below: a tree made from the words used in the book.
It works better as a summary than any of the blurbs I’ve composed so far. It’s all there. You get the main players in one glance (Boy, Girl, Park, Tree). Linger for a moment and you notice the key elements and accents (gardens, water, strangeness, and want). Look deeper and the supporting material emerges (rain, chase, path, heart).
My world in a tree.
