Window Washer
Episode 2 of 3
Window Washer is selected from the debut collection by Louise Stern. Sculptures about the voice and silence give Christian, a deaf window cleaner, pause for thought.
Window Washer is the next in our selection of short stories from Louise Stern's debut collection. In this story sculptures about the voice and silence belonging to a client give Christian, a window cleaner, pause for thought. What sets Christian apart is that like Stern herself he is deaf, and reveals a world that is at times unfamiliar and hard to grasp, but one that at the same time is instantly understood.
Alan Warner says: "An amazing debut. Vibrantly perceptive, gentle, funny and profound."
The reader is Harry Lloyd.
Abridged and produced by Elizabeth Allard.
