Speaking to No. 4

Bag om Speaking to No. 4

Where is Alma? A future husband--No. 4--is desperately seeking his fiancée, who has disappeared. To locate her, he is interviewing her three former husbands, her sister, and ex sister-in-law. Could she be hiding in a French monastery? A Japanese shukubo (temple lodging)? Or maybe she is the victim of a belief in a Balkan creation myth? Written in six voices that come together in a seamless and often comical narrative, Speaking to No. 4 is at once a meditation on our construction of space and a psychological mystery in which the main character has gone missing. As husband No. 3, the Architect, says to husband-to-be No. 4, Think of Japanese space as a novel in which the main character is absent.
