Inhaltsverzeichnis

All time has passed away and left me here alone.
Dancing on tiptoe in black rain.
My one-eyed nanny.
I carry an infectious disease.
Scissors and seduction.
The Widow Ho and her "changing room".
A stranger to myself.
Yi Qiu.
The inner room.
A coffin looks for an occupant.
Bed-a stage for the drama of the sexes.
A new myth of Sisyphus.
A bed cries out.
Yinyang Grotto.
One person's death brings punishment to another.
Endless days.
Apple bobbing.
A fiery dance of death.
A stray bullet.
The birth of Miss Nothing.
The years have passed away and left me here alone.
The lonely are a shameless lot.
