In several stories, DerErzähler is a tattoo artist, a poetological cipher for Dawkins ‘ own artistry. “In prison, tattoo artists, what y can get, usually take a angespitzteGitarrensaite on a Walkman engine. The ink is made from soot and spit, sometimes also urine, and still so brilliant, precise Entwürfesehen on skin is only dull and washed out.
