Abel and Cain are the first two sons of mankind. Algot and Claes are the last. A shepherd without animals and a florist without flowers. History repeats itself: a man kills his brother, a tale already written. Only a Clown can change it.

Abel and Cain are the first two sons of mankind. Algot and Claes are the last. A shepherd without animals and a florist without flowers. They wander through a deserted world until they reach their mother's grave. Their legacy: animals for Algot, manure for Claes. Jealousy blinds reason, violence overcomes brotherly love, history seems to repeat itself from beginning to end: a man kills his brother, as in a tale already written. Only a Clown can change the ending.—Pietro Quadrino
