Description
Ina adores Babette and visits her cousin regularly in whichever facility Babette currently resides. She trusts Babette's take on all things and has since childhood ("orphans cannot afford to be squeamish"), but on Tuesday's visit, to her grave detriment, Ina fails to follow Babette's advice when an "incident" throws all in chaos.
("I told you to hide, cousin," Babette said sorrowfully...)
A one-way Alice in Wonderland, Ina now lives in Babette's world of lockdowns, barred windows, displaced ducks, mashed potatoes, plays told as stories and stories told as plays, perpetual cleaning, howls in the night and far too many windows.
Staying sane isn't as simple as it seems.
