Summary
In the Night Kitchen: A Dream Baked in Reality
Sendak’s intrepid hero, Mickey, tumbles through the inky blackness and into the Night Kitchen, a place where three plump bakers are busily crafting the morning cake. What follows is an enchanting dream fantasy, an experience the artist himself described as “a fantasy ten feet deep in reality.”
