Alice is entranced by the aesthetics of technology and, in every aeroplane flight, every Xerox machine, every neon sign, sees the poetry of modernity.
Mr Sakamoto, a survivor of the atomic bomb, is an expert on Alexander Graham Bell.
The pair forge an unlikely friendship as Mr Sakamoto regales Alice with stories of twentieth-century invention.
