Beginning:
A man sat on a curb, smoking a cigarette, waiting for nothing to happen. A bottle of red wine rested between his legs, and it was half empty. Next to him was a battered transistor radio with its antenna raised, and the Pilgrims' Chorus eased from it statically, vaguely competing with the thrum of intermittent traffic.
