Strange Day

Some days announce themselves in advance. The night before, there were snakes — a whole congress of them, coiling through sleep with unhurried purpose. Freud, famously, was unambiguous on the subject.
Strange Day follows an afternoon in the park that begins with two cancellations and ends with a wink that reframes everything. Along the way: a scene of accidental beauty that stops the narrator in his tracks; the long-awaited resolution of a maddening pattern; a beanie hat that keeps sliding at the worst possible moments; and a reunion with a man whose cold, carved-stone face belongs, unmistakably, to a Second World War German officer. Or possibly Arnold Schwarzenegger. The unconscious, it turns out, keeps its own diary — one step ahead of the life being lived.
