Inspired by Gage McWeeny’s »The Comfort of Strangers« – an academic book of ideas about the role of strangers in late 19th century novels. A short rumination and sleight of hand, a live action melody:

»If we had a keen vision and feeling of all ordinary human life, it would be like hearing the grass grow and the squirrel’s heartbeat, and we should die of that roar which lies on the otherside of silence.« - George Eliot.
