The narrator has temporarily abandoned his work-in-progress ? an essay on Kafka ? and exchanged his writer?s pen for the orange vest of a Prague road-sweeper. As he works, he meditates on Czechoslovakia, on Kafka, on life, on art and, obsessively, on his passionate and adulterous love affair with the sculptress Daria.
