"The Source of the Sound" traces the journeys of exiles in search of home. The collection is littered with the mise-en-scène of being lost: motel rooms, alcohol abuse, prostitution ... Yet, in each story there is some elemental contact with light and sound, the product of the characters' longing for simple, uncorrupted, reorienting signs.
