Cameos

Someone you saw on the bus everyday. A colleague at work. The choir master. A girl in a brown coat waiting in line at the supermarket. A girl you went out with. Once. All these persons do not make up the core of your life experiences. They are bit players. Making cameos in your story. This is a book about these cameo players. But the central figure in all of these relationships is missing. There is no hero. This is the story of the crowd.

Stories and illustrations of people I hardly knew. Sketches and fiction to fill in the holes.
