Their fated romance echoes Vilnius’ last breath of air, before it’s shut beneath the gray exterior of a Soviet sarcophagus. The remaining three narrators are peripheral characters in Vargalas’ life—Martinas, a pontificating computer(less) programmer, Stefanija, a jealous and infertile seductress, and Gediminias, a brilliant mathematician turned jazz artist. There is no dialogue among these characters, only isolated observations. This completes...
