What she did, he did. My father, the oceanographer -- In the nick of time, a deer -- In the corner of my mind, a boy -- Grinding the wind -- Hour glass -- Coddle -- The travelling corsetiere -- My father's balance -- Block and tackle. The glass slipper was only half of it -- Cathedral of the poor -- The glass blower's boy -- The campanology of wishes -- Cathedral of mutes -- He reads the welcome of swans -- The perpetual visitor -- Sleepwalking child -- There are no horses in heaven -- Something is knocking. The visitation -- 1925, Henry Souttar does the unthinkable -- Wired -- The taxidermist dissects his dream -- Absolutely, her son -- The optometrist's gaze -- After you have gone/the visions -- Fowl, announcing an egg -- Herd -- Pin-striped jacket -- It has nothing to do with horses. The year I lived with Lucky -- The lower-ranked horse -- Rumour of the beasts -- Tell me again the ancient deer will return to the city -- When gorillas wake -- On finding a gun in the long grass -- We three -- One day, a stranger. Bird song/National Radio -- The biography of Mr. Carrot -- Piece by piece -- Fools, lovers, big tree -- Man, reaching -- Observing the ankles of a stranger -- The accordion players.
