Each title has a corresponding 'mate' on the other side. The reader is therefore presented with ten individual stories, which are told in two entirely different ways. One half of the book represents the individual, and paints its stories within a surreal dreamscape, while the other half of the book symbolizes the collective and presents its stories in hard reality.
