Sarah (K). The mysterious trace of a painter
For decades Sarah drew hollow-eyed, gaping faces on Bristol cards. These faces without bodies or sex emerged from blank backgrounds: unworthy stains furiously crossed out and scratched, if not erased.
When she died in 1994, her close relatives found several hundreds of these enigmatic drawings.

He remembers their last moments together. Do the staring faces unveil some secret of the philosopher?
