I loved Edward Steeplewood

Illustration for the story "I Loved Edward Steeplewood" by Jeremy Dedetius, writer, invented by Milorad Pavic ("Paper Theater").
"Edward Steeplewood had a graceful physique and beautiful dark eyes that always looked in surprise at the surrounding Toronto.He did not navigate the world and never knew where he was. Sometimes, if you noticed it unexpectedly, it could cause you such an energy shock, as if you had drunk at a look at a multivitamin juice. Once (then we had already become lovers) he cried out in his sleep: My goodness! When I asked what he was dreaming, he muttered his strange mouth with a strange answer: I dreamed that I was alive. And I was horrified."
