R’s most recent opus, the 12-chapter “Trapped In the Closet” series, challenged fans more than ever with its absurd soap opera plotline. Many people dismissed the experiment, which beneath the surface is a profound meditation on sexuality and fidelity in the 21st century.

An entire row of shops has lost its front, as though sliced off by a blunt cheese wire, and bars of Lux soap, pastries and plastic toys spill out onto the street. We pass broken villages and military camps, including an artillery battery swamped by a mudslide, still vainly pointing toward Pakistan 10 miles away. There are three or four checkpoints. Then a landslide announces the end of the road and an end to any visible...
