There is limited availability of this title. Please enquire before placing your order.

Two lovers experience a baffling series of relationships together, each one just slightly and tantalizingly different. Awarded the Governer General's Literary Award for Drama in Canada in 1992, the play uses parallel narratives to speculate about questions of identity and the role of imagination in love.

Made into a film by Robert Lepage.

'every scene is just dazzling... This is like a double espresso for your mind' - Richard Ouzounian, CBC
