Description
John arrives in a Montreal airport with a suitcase in hand. We do not know where he is from, or who he is. The novel sets out to explore his identity by following his daily movements and intimate thoughts, as well as his connections to those coming into contact with him. He writes his own reflections and impressions in a notebook which he carries with him at all times.
The story unfolds through non-linear narrative connections that flow across city blocks, continents and oceans, and meander in and out of characters' minds, dealing with questions of displacement, identity and meaning.
