A fable and five personal essays, from various locales around the world. Snapshots of still moments—sometimes sweet, sometimes disquieting—from a traveler's life in motion.

From the publisher: "Six pieces. The title story is a fable about a fish washed out of its river into a delta and a seabird that flies inland to try to get it home. The rest is nonfiction: two dead bodies found on two different rivers in Nepal; detention inside Gare du Nord by British immigration; a 4am taxi ride to Charles de Gaulle with a driver who wants to talk about Dolly Parton; a busker in Sivas playing a song about the 1993 massacre there, and the history of the traveling musicians who carried songs like it across Anatolia for centuries. A look across social and political thematics, presented in snapshots."

68 pages, half-letter size, letterpressed covers, comes with a handsome bookmark. Published by Black River (Esrum, Denmark), letterpress-printed in short runs and released without an ISBN as a deliberate political choice.
