Too Much Midnight | Krista Franklin

Pickpick

This monograph-type book includes 31 pieces of writing, mostly poetry, and 32 art works created by writer and interdisciplinary artist, Krista Franklin. Palpable and compelling, it is the kind of book that encourages me to read it the way I read picture books as a child: I read parts aloud enjoying the language and tracing my fingers around some images while emitting sounds of excitement😍.
