Description: "'A young man receives an e-mail from his wife two years after she disappeared without a trace; A woman fulfills the irrational desires of an aged Japanese ornithologist by reading his dead daughter's diaries to a room full of birds; A friend who listens attentively to the story from the sidelines, and a young jazz trumpet player who observes everything from the stage.' Within this framework a search is begun: a search in which truth and the wistful imagination of the lonely merge to form a distorted picture of the present, where eveything is experienced second-hand and at a distance."--p. [4] of cover (translated)
