Plot summary
In an empty villa on Sicily, Basilio has settled with Kasimir, an old and mysterious man whose task is to lead him toward genuine poetry. The house gives the boy room to work on his music, into which he pours the signs and pictures of his own inner world. Then Karla appears. She is every bit as odd as he is, and it becomes clear that her life and his are already bound together in ways neither of them can explain. The symbolism of the world around the two of them appears to lead toward a discovery neither has made yet.
