In a small metaphorical city, all the streets are named after poets. The town’s inhabitants live in a utopian illusion founded on poetry. When the system changes, and war begins, new neighbourhoods emerge to accommodate the refugees, and the existing street names are replaced by new ones. The city’s residents soon find themselves lost amid the memories of the forgotten poets.
