A unique novel, light and deep at the same time, that investigates the possibilities of the genre to talk about the body, the world and the always insufficient strategies with which we try to map them. This is a restless and disturbing book, made of "incomplete stories, dream tales" subsumed in a very free travel notebook based on excursions, notes, narratives and memories that often have the trip itself as their theme: thus, the story of Kunicki, who will have to face the disappearance of his wife and son, and their maddeningly enigmatic reappearance. Or that of Annushka, obsessed with understanding the incomprehensible oaths uttered by a beggar. And also the true story of how Chopin's heart arrived in Poland hidden in his sister's petticoats/ or that of the anatomist Philip Verheyen, who wrote letters to his amputated and dissected leg/ letters like those sent by Josephine Soliman to the emperor of Austria to recover his father's body, dissected like Verheyen's leg and infamously displayed at the court where he had served in life.
