House

Okay, so I am sitting there trying to read this book and understand what its all about, but I am having trouble focussing on some of the words every so often. In particular the word "house". Then I realized that the word "house" is blue. I'm not sure why this is, but I'm guessing it will be explained later in the book? Also, I just noticed that the word "house" in the title on the cover is blue. I'm hoping this will have some kind of significance and is just not intended to throw my eyes off. I'm not saying I have an eye problem or a reading problem; just that its something you are not used to seeing and it can attract some of your attention away from the rest of the page.

What if there is no reason why the house is blue? Does that lessen your pleasure or interest in wondering why it is? n other words, do we need answers when reading a story or, like in the Pillowman, are the best stories the stories thta are puzzles with no answers?
