The Notice on the Door
The kitchen table in the flat in Khlong San, a notice for the workshop door drafted between Nam and Jack, with Ton reading over their shoulders: closed temporarily first; from the first to the thirtieth; reopens as usual on the first of October; and the customers; write contact Ton, and the number; apprentice, not boy; we apologise for the inconvenience; at the bottom, write Jack's Boat Workshop: the written Thai of a notice, which reads nothing like speech.

THE STORY
The kitchen table of the flat on the fourth floor in Khlong San, an evening at the end of August, a sheet of paper and three pens: Jack and Nam speak as a couple, without the particle, Ton says the polite word and older brother Jack, and the lines of the notice are read in the written Thai of a sign.
