- Summary
- Tells an adventure story put together in a highly individual fashion and with an unusual time sequence, whereby the reader is even made to choose whether to begin at the first or the tenth chapter. A veritable literary melting pot, this text makes ample use of wordplay and the surrealist techniques of automatic writing and private allusion
