Against a classical score, we roam¿and ricochet¿philosophy, art, Schopenhauer and the childless choice, Greek myths,¿scatology and¿sarcophagy, and¿in India,¿the delicate and rich art of passementerie,¿its¿elaborate braids, embellishments and stitching...¿As well as the more mundane - college friends, old flames, excruciating family - the contrast of¿life's messy minutiae.¿ In its Arabic origins, the word of the pigeon whisperer is deemed untrustworthy,¿dismissed as hearsay from court, tainted and taboo.
