Rajiani Devaki (Raji) is a girl of 13 from India. On a cold December morning in 1925, Vincent Fusilier (Fuse) finds Raji sleeping in his parents' barn. He thinks she's a vagrant and tells her she has to go. She doesn't understand English and doesn't know where she is, having recently escaped from a house in Queens, New York, where she had been held for the past nine years as an indentured servant.

October 1932. At the beginning of the Great Depression, schools and universities all over America were cutting back, and even closing their campuses. Raji and Fuse, like so many other young people, were to be cut adrift. Having concentrated on nothing but academics for the past four years, they weren’t prepared for the brutal economic realities of a world sinking into misery and hopelessness.

A man returns to Thailand after a 50-year absence. When he was in Bangkok on leave from the Vietnam War, he met a girl and fell in love. After returning to the battlefield, he was critically wounded and shipped to a hospital in San Diego. After recovering from his injuries he goes back to Bangkok looking for Chayan, but she’s not there.

A dying man tells his great granddaughter that he has signed a "Do Not Resuscitate" document, giving instructions for medical personal to let him die if he’s determined to be brain-dead. He’s invited on a long journey that he thinks is taking place in his subconscious mind as his body is being kept alive against his wishes.
