Strangers by Huda Ablan 1. No one belongs to the path except a pocket stuffed with the leaves of the night. It keeps steps in stock from a shop at the crossroads of the will, patched with the skin of an old dream. When yawning, it invites them to a dance with few feet [...]

It has been ten long days since my last post, ten days of travels, of letters written and not sent, of (re) search. In the middle of it all, I experienced the ‘biggest blackout in the history of San Diego county’.

“Here is a splendid volume from the Terry Gillam school of fictional photography… The book comes in a sturdy slipcase and features complex landscapes, painstakingly created, and digitally peopled by actors playing out scenes which conjure up a mystical Middle Eastern civilisation.
