A man forced to remain immovable for life, prisoner to a wheelchair, tries to impose onto his world the same confinement that he feels. He does it with his Belgian sheepdogs, with his hawk tied to a hanger, with Australian parakeet that he keeps caged, with his nurse, his sister and his mother. Probably also with the reader, who will feel enclosed in a cage that gradually keeps getting smaller and smaller. These stories propose a series of facts as fiction, or perhaps they are real.
