At the center of this short story collection book are two vastly different tales: ?Poor Sailor?, a sea-faring myth of a man gone to find wealth for his love; and ?Somersaulting?, a kind of fever dream of teenagers in love, wiling away the summer. Around these stories shorter comic strips tackling everything from Napoleon (if he was a tortured artist) to touching examinations of Jewish mysticism and life in a shtetl, to satires of contemporary university life.
