Inhaltsangabe

By blinking his eyes and moving his pupils, a paraplegic manthe onetime vocalist in a famous rock bandcomposes a kind of anti-biography that is corrected and expanded upon by an unknown editor. Alternating between the vocalists impressionistic recollections and the editors corrections, an asynchronous story emerges, evoking the vocalists childhood in southern Chile and telling of the rise and fall of the band that he grew up to lead, while hinting at a multiplicity of other narrative possibilities.
