Burn is a narrative collage with people and allegorical creatures A house burns from the inside while its occupants focus on the emotional issues of their lives The inhabitants serve life sentences with no remission in a structure of insecurity while impending disaster is ignored An absent minded couple sits calmly reading as fires erupt in their clothing books and furniture They nonchalantly swat at the flames with a stoic inattentiveness Burn embraces an antinarrative structure yet intense drama is found in the work Finally a decisive act is taken leading to the possibility of a miraculous event
