The historical web unravels into the threads of personal memories before it is rewound around a single coil, death.

-An aspiring dancer slowly loses hers under the weight of small family tragedies.

The twelve stories in the collection span space and time while juggling between history and fiction, everyday life and the fantastic. In the end, they merge into a common bed, the only inescapable truth, according to which "he who loses, pays all debts". Those left behind are called upon to bear the loss with the fortitude and yearning with which amputees feel an invisible limb where the lost limb no longer exists.
