A newborn's absent face appears on the back of someone else's head, a
filmmaker goes to gruesome lengths to achieve the silence he's after for
his final scene, and a therapist begins, impossibly, to appear in a
troubled patient's room late at night. In these stories of doubt,
delusion, and paranoia, no belief, no claim to objectivity, is immune to
the distortions of human perception. Here, self-deception is a means of
justifying our most inhuman impulses--whether we know it or not.
