La pols

Their father has died. That is what Jacob has heard when he picked up the telephone. Two minutes later, he’s forgotten the news. He has forgotten it so completely that he hasn’t even communicated it to his sister Ruth, who lives with him in a modest apartment.
This is the start of a long day and a half that elapses from their father’s death to his burial. This time is experienced differently by the lost souls who appear in this story and respond to the names of Ruth, Alba and Jacob.
