- Overview
- The story tells of Mr. Rowe, who was involved in Nazi espionage plots in the 1940s. In an attempt to shed light on his story and the role he is supposed to play, the man ends up at the center of a complicated story that, starting with a premonition announced to him by a gypsy, ends up seeing him as the protagonist of a poignant love story, a loss of memory, and a consequent hospitalization in a psychiatric hospital. Only at the end of the story does the protagonist arrive at a partial clarification of his position.
