From the dust jacket-

"For as much time as children spend staring out the window, there's also the occasional- and sometimes illicit - peek back inside. Thus the central question in 'The Window': is it better to look out or in?"

In addition, she studied Animation and Animated Film at the Konstfack University, Sweden's largest university for arts, crafts, and design. Herzog has a passion for ink, pen and hatching.
