The Embrace of the Serene Night

A path of words toward restoring sleep

A story to read in bed with the light turned low. It walks with you breath by breath, from the mattress that holds you to the eyelids that close, as far as the edge of sleep.

Breathe in… breathe out… and feel sleep rising like a gentle tide, warm and near.

The whole story is in the book, with its full-page illustration.
