Pp. 131-136 gave me the same feeling as the opening of Wenders' film
'Wings of Desire' in which two angels are surveying the city, their POVs
shifting randomly from one street to another, one car to another, one
apartment to another...no plot to tie the images together...no character
development to provide context or background for the overheard
conversations...just momentary visitations to the seemingly unrelated
parallel microcosms which make up the ungraspable macrocosm.
