Description

Two people meet and discover they share a love of acting, telling stories and reading Roland Barthes. They agree to meet up two or three times a month and exchange haikus and stories that occur to them after reading Barthes' A Lover's Discourse: Fragments.

As their stories are exchanged the couple's relationship develops, changes, and reaches a strange climax.

The collections of stories are entertaining, witty, sometimes shocking and poke fun at the dour and laboured Fragments of Roland Barthes, posing the question of what the meaning of a story is if it is to be part of an exchange and what in life is not exchanged?
