Nistanimera is a site of potent mergers: day and night, Greece and Italy, head and heart, liver and lights, dream and reality, within and without. Ideally it should be imagined as a cantata sung by a lost transvestite Roman Catholic/Marxist nun banged up in a detention centre off the A14. The film rights are currently under negotiation. Peter Hughes is a painter, musician, poet and teacher who lives in East Anglia.
