NOTES A boy is raised to the age of 35 by his over-bearing mother

and without ever leaving their apartment. Their relationship

gets too close and the mother convinces her son the air

outside is not fit to breathe. But then the father returns and

naturally he feels left out.

Realising that the air outside is O.K. he leaves the apartment

and has a number of adventures including being seduced

within hours and then raped.

Later he works with "mentally handicapped people" who have

speech difficulties.
