This is a story told entirely by manipulating the names of characters. Like the "A Man" story, this is one that you have to watch a few times -- the story will gradually dawn on you. Who's the real culprit? Who's the real hero?

In this story there is a plot, there are subplots, there are personalities, there is conflict, and there is emotion. How does it work? Does it work the same for everyone? If you saw a well-known story represented this way, would you recognize it? Is this a quicker way to understand a story -- is it a good summary -- or is it just confusing? Is this a viable candidate for a way to present a summarization of a story?
