this, Wayne enlists the aid of a cryptic Corsican whose own culture and
identity are fast disappearing in the rise of a universal nationality --
one whose common language is email and whose treasured artifacts are
zipped into slick JPEGs, viewed only in thumbnail size. Unbeknownst to
them, both men are involved with the same woman, an architecture student
named Alix who lives in Marseille. But while she and the Corsican have a
physical relationship, it is the playfully erotic and strangely elusive
email correspondence between Alix and Wayne that evokes both passion and
tenderness.
