George is a brilliant linguist whose life work is capturing the world's vanishing languages. Speaking of vanishing, George's wife is headed out the door because he can't find the right words to express himself. At work, George's assistant is mute with adoration for him. Enter the last two speakers of the Ellowan language — the long-married Alta and Resten, a funny and fractious truth-talking couple. This tale, loaded with life's contradictions, explores the force and failings of words.
