Have I committed a crime?
Lamm cannot answer this question. But it may not count anymore. There was a misunderstanding and now he can leave the town. It is not the chandelier or the way the executioner looked in the pub that he has in mind, but the woman who slapped him on the last night, the woman who is now lying before the wall, motionless, like a pebble. Is this his punishment?
Lamm was pardoned, but his punishment has just begun when the dead city disappears among the trees. Now, the world is hanging from above, like a torn poster. He will never see the city again, but it will never see the city again, but it will always be in front of his mind's eye. Is their anything more cruel than to be condemned to live in a constant thirst of remembrance without the spring water of forgetting.
