Picture WindowsTwo faces staring out of two windows in two separate houses in two separate cities separated by more than fifty years interests, fascinates, and eventually obsesses the same observer, first when he was a young boy, then when he was a recently retired man. Precipitated by the discovery of a long-buried skeleton behind a recently demolished older house, a retired man investigated these two obsessions, separated by time and place, for possible meaning.
