The musicologist Franz Ritter, ill and sleepless in Vienna, recalls his travels to Istanbul, Aleppo, Palmyra, Damascus and Tehran while it snows. During that sleepless night, friends, musicians and travellers fascinated by the Near East pass by; among them, Sarah, the French scholar he has been in love with for years.

For readers of literary fiction interested in the relationship between the West and the Near East, music and travel.
