Exploring themes of longing, dedication, and the intersection of sex and religion, the collection features interconnected stories that unfold across time and perspectives. From a woman's struggle with a critical dance coach to a Venetian poet's encounter with a modern traveler, each narrative builds upon the last. The journey culminates with Giles, who, after personal loss, finds solace in Buddhism and reconnects with the dancer from the first story. Joan Silber masterfully weaves these tales, creating a rich tapestry of human experience.
