The hero is an artist who suffers from a creative block and who cannot bring himself to sexually perform. He has a variety of encounters with women and at times steals articles of clothing from them as sexual fetishes. His frustrations culminate at an art party where he observes others behaving freely, while he can only get drunk. After visiting someone and seeing a "sculpture" in their apartment, he becomes inspired and rushes home to paint. He writes letters to his women friends, telling them to come at once for he has painted a masterpiece. Upon receiving his letter, the women prepare to leave to visit him, but are distracted by their lovers. The man waits in vain; in frustration he destroys the canvas. The fetishes he had been collecting jump out from the drawer where he had been hiding them as if to haunt or taunt him, showing him what he is.; PFA 1612-01-2695. D0415; PFA 1612-01-2695.
