Mats Gustafsson is a Swedish painter. The poems by William B. Yeats that accompany this book and the drawings by Mats, who has also provided illustrations for Dior and Hermès, have a certain mode flavor. Open this book at night, when people are asleep, and feel the silence and relief. The dedication to her parents also brings tears to my eyes. This is a very beautiful book that you will want to keep by your side for the rest of your life.
