From the banks of the Willamette River to the neighborhoods of Riyadh via the great European capitals, geography looms large, and reveals the isolation of the narrator, who is no more attached to American society than he is to his place of origin, which he seeks to escape, but which continues to haunt him, because exile in Portland sends him straight back to his past and to Riyadh.
