I listened to and rated this one some time ago. I called it a "Kafkaesque tale of lost love and redemption." While the main character is not as tragic as Kafka's hero in "Metamorphisis", he is similar.

This is perhaps the best work I've heard by Elspeth Eric. My opinion of her does not need to be aired again. Suffice it to say I always listen to her work waiting to be disappointed -- or occasionally disgusted.

I truly enjoyed this one and was pleasantly surprised.
