A man rescues a woman from a suicide attempt in a gay nightclub. Walking the streets together, she propositions him: She'll pay him to visit her at her isolated house for four consecutive nights. There he will silently watch her. He's reluctant, but agrees. As the four nights progress, they become more intimate with each other, and a mutual fascination/revulsion develops. By the end of the four-day "contract", these two total strangers will have had a profound impact on each other.

Love: an invented feeling. What matters is the game of seduction, the ritual of pleasing someone. (p. 115) - A nice trick to seduce the reader is to give him that sense of superiority that comes from knowing more about the characters he sees acting in front of him. Like when a man steps forward on the screen and we see the hitman waiting for him around the corner. Proud to dominate its fate from our dark armchair, but unaware that the director is cunningly manipulating us in turn. (p. 118) Gesualdo Bufalino, The ill-thinker October
