Originally published: London: Bodley Head, 1968.

Min works at the BBC as a sound engineer, trying to create an authentic heartbeat sound effect, and ignore her colleagues. Min is theoretically married, but George is so invisible that she accidentally turns the lights off even when he's still in the room. Min is also being courted by an internationally renowned opera singer who she refers to as The Bloater (a swelled, salted herring). Disgusted by him and attracted to him in equal measure, her dilemma is whether to sleep with him or not.
