Description
Havah disappears strangely but leaves behind the tales of witnesses and facts about Padounba. These reveal the spirit and its progress in the land but only as a puzzle out of another. The train that creaks to Karcas from which are disembarked loads of politics, eccentricities, absurdities and rebellion. Looking for Havah, Binyori enters into her own myth again, into the existential drama of her culture, and gets lost. Here is a curious poetic medley that is vastly humorous, the poet's kind of novel with dramatic rendering, resonating with radical aesthetics.
