    In order to escape the spy photographers of the press, and to cover as many miles as possible, SAAB took the development cars to Northern Finland.

    As if, on the one hand, finding himself now suspended between sky and sea could be only the most consequent development of his three lustry of peregrinations in a territory made up of forked paths.

    "The conflict between calling the police and knowing he has to call them on the one hand, and feeling immobilized by grief, sadness, and obsessional thoughts about why she had been killed on the other, leads to a delay in his ability to make the phone call he needs to make."
