Description: :Is a person's life a seamless whole, a single story? Or do we lead several lives at once - one experienced by ourselves or by our imaginations, others by those around us? When one considers all the experiences and encounters that shape our lives, is there any constant, essential self that can be said to be the measure of who we really are? Michael Jackson pursues these questions in a series of loosely connected, autobiographical fictions. Set variously in France, New Zealand, Australia, Singapore, the Congo (Zaire) and Sierra Leone, [the book] explores the mystery of how lives overlap and destinies converge."--Back cover.
