In The Tales of Things we delve into the vast and intimate world of an antique shop. We analise it carefully. The ambience is solemn evocation. We hear whispers. Some sentences are perceptible from the rest. They speak of past livings and wonderful mysterious stories the objects hold. The shop swarms of shelved objects. Old china is held, exposed, as are porcelain dolls, toy cars and tin soldiers. Whispers fill the air, one after the other.
