The Forest by Ricardo Bozzi
3.0
The illustrations' mix of watercolor and embossing & cut-outs on heavy white paper effectively matches the text's mix of descriptions of a trip into a forest and a metaphor of birth, development, aging, and death - in that neither is fully effective even though they are both lyrical and beautiful.
The illustrations are hard to make out, even after you catch on to what you should be looking for, just as the text is hard to decipher even after you catch on that it's a double metaphor.
But the pictures are lovely.
