Determined not to be a simple witness but an accomplice, the narrator breathes in the night at bars, cabarets, dives, pick-up joints, children's play areas, wedding receptions, and lover's dimly lit piano bars. He fills his nights with questions and pursues any excess capable of surprising him, disgusting him, threatening him, but never those leaving him unarmed. We could call him a romantic because he is able to fall in love and find mystery and beauty where ordinary folk only see lust, cash and risk.
