AbstractHistoryArchive Description
'In an old shabby hotel, strewn with familiar remnants, a woman pieces together the fragments of a terrible crime she may or may not have committed. In another room a woman is having a bath. And outside a German woman is wandering in the desert.
'A story that moves from sadness to humour, cruelty to tenderness, daylight to twilight.'
