...houses they built of them have collapsed. In Fyodor's mind the irony inherent in the lives of displaced persons becomes explicit; it becomes a dancing landscape, in which his private Russian past of butterflies, poetry and childhood games blurs into the hateful Berlin present of landladies, "Germani-cally stupid" language students, and menacing politics, as the Weimar Republic, "oppressive as a headache," clumsily snuffles toward its collapse.

Licet ambo sint scurrae, tamen Doctor A. Doctori B. praestat. Infeliciter alter alteri invidet, neque alter occasionem alterius petulantibus vocibus consectandi praetermittit. Jam paucis diebus ante cum convivis aliis hospites amici fuerunt. Ridetur, editur, potatur, ut omnes non minus animo quam ventre delectentur. Sermonis cursu a Doctore B. rogatus, ut fabellam narraret, "Fabella digna, quam narrem," Doctor A. respondet, "mihi non est; mihi autem somnium proxima nocte mirum fuit...
