Escaping the blazing South, Douglas returns to a green Alpine village he knew in youth and settles into its tavern while the rain falls with Scotch persistence. Wandering the Vorarlberg, he writes of the well-maker, the Lutz forest, the ruins of Blumenegg, Father Bruhin and old memories, and of scrambling across a treacherous rubble slope.
