- Summary
- A meditative collection from Poland explores themes of travel, movement and existentialism in stories that feature protagonists who question their shifting perspectives in time and space as they tackle extreme agendas. For example, one story features a seventeenth-century Dutch anatomist discovering the Achilles tendon by dissecting his own amputated leg. In another, Chopin's heart is being carried back to Warsaw in secret by his adoring sister
