註釋When a city becomes stranded in summer its inhabitants lose themselves in games: games of money and chance, games of possession and loss, games of sex. The players with most to gain are Robert, Jennifer, Stanner and Doctor Melrose. Others have nothing to lose. Everyone is playing, everyone is at the table. They bluff and they raise, they call, they play the odds. Soon they will be playing a new game: telling what is real from what is not. Heaven is very good at this - mainly because Heaven knows what comes next. Heaven dreams the future and all you have to do is sit back and wait for it to happen.
