Wow, Wow-Wow, Wow, Wow. There was a speaker close-by. Stretching credulity of course one perfectly well understands, but, how to say, veritas and nothing but. Consecutive tracks in this precise order: unknown vocalist the first in the standard rendition; the Burt Bacharach and finally topped by inimitable Tom.

The Way We Die Now and When Breath Becomes Air face out on the top shelf of the Highlights stand bodilo oci, as the Serbs say—pricking the eyeballs.
Australian writer of Montenegrin descent en route to a polyglot European port at the head of the Adriatic mid-2011 shipwrecks instead on the SE Asian Equator. 12, 36, 48…80, 90++ months passage out awaited. Scribble all the while. By some process stranger than fiction, a role as an interpreter of Islam develops; Buddhism & even Hinduism. (Long story.)
