CUCKOO SONGS is composed of one story told twice. The first is experimental in which letters of words are switched to create new words, new sounds, many puns. The effect is meant to be comic. The story line is clear but is read and seen in a different way. The second version of CUCKOO SONGS is conventional and straight. It is meant to be sweet and funny and sometimes melodramatic. So what are the two CUCKOO SONGS about? The intimate lives of Tom and Petra Amphibologies, a authentic couple. 3
