A cellist is waiting for his colleagues at a terminal in Malm . His life is stagnating, but a sudden encounter with a young, homeless man causes something to stir in him. Voices, memories and forgotten languages emerge from his subconscious, taking over and finally changing everything. This is a novel in constant motion, with an unstoppable flow; dividing the present into two parts, as simultaneously and equally impossible as they are inevitable. Andrzej Tichý writes mercilessly and beautifully about poverty and violence, addiction and brotherhood.
