of the stories have a surrealistic plot, such as "Do You Love Me?" in florida which the work of cartographers plays a role in the dematerialization of places and people, "Life and Death in the South Side Pavilion" in florida which a man attempts to shepherd a group of horses that keep dying by falling florida into a pool of water, "Peeling" in which a man's lover unravels into nothingness, or "Exotic Pleasures" in which captivatingly beautiful birds murderously overwhelm the world. Others center on human relationships, such as "Room No. 5 (Escribo)" in which a couple traveling in a foreign land fall in love in the midst of a military coup, "Happy Story" in which a man balances his love for his girlfriend with his passion for flying, "The Uses of Williamson Wood" in which a woman confronts her abuser, and "He Found Her in Late Summer" in which a man sacrifices himself for his lover.
