Welcome to the dollhouse















Dear Marc, I just wanted to share this picture with you. It's a window display from an undertaker downtown.

This display has been around for a while, in one of the more expensive parts of Stockholm. I wish I could have been there for the discussions leading up to the interesting arrangement:

"Let's take a dollhouse and cut it in half!"
"Yeah! And let the fat code of laws fall in between!"
"Sure thing, and then we can add a note, discretlely asking "Has there been a change in your family situation?".

Is that how it happened? I don't have a clue. But every time I pass the undertaker, I stop and stare.

now must sleep and dream of chain saws.
love

D'jya notice the stormy sea on which the fractured display sits as well as the strange shaped object to the right of the law book. What is that? More perspective view/window into the funeral/healing theme?

Worlds most charming blog...
