520 1 $a"Masud creates a lush landscape of dreams and disillusion, where love and pain intertwine. A parfumier mixes memory with desire to recall the older girl who influenced his destiny. A dispossessed boy learns difficult lessons of love and its transparencies from a young girl who has never set foot on land. A man escapes his incestuous longings to become a building inspector with the ability to detect in houses their obscure realms of fear and desire."--Jacket.
