  Describes the enigmatic condition of a man and woman alone in a sparsely furnished hotel room who try to remember what has happened to bring them there as they await whatever will happen next. This book tells of their reserved confusion and quiet desperation that impress upon them (and us) the realization that imagination can create reality.
