One curious young boy observes the courtship of spiders as he
contemplates life without a father. Another delivers tracts for
Lord's Assembly and stumbles into something awkward to do with
adults. Yet another gathers stones to a shroud dead dog. A young
man visits his disreputable, unwelcoming uncle to hear a curious
tale. A medium finds herself rumbled when a spirit she conjures
kisses and tells all. A wannabe Bonnie and Clyde go on a spree
round the commuter belt. A former sex worker collides with her
past. A singer performs to soldiers at a turning point in history.
There are inexplicable mysterious things out there in the cloud
forest - concrete or lush - small moments of discovery,
enlightenment and recognition. Permeated with dark ironic humour
and a melancholic sense of the absurd, these thirteen stories are
fragments of the lives of their characters, who in being ordinary -
honest or decidedly not - are exceptional.
