The erotic yearnings kindled especially in the space of the city span Benjamin’s writings. An early tale, ‘Still Story’, describes the journey home of a young female student pursued by the narrator, who stalks her to her door. The city itself becomes a threshold.

A number of these stories were written and set in Ibiza. Benjamin appears fascinated by the differences between peasant life and the lives of the metropolitan figures who find themselves there, usually as exiles from some previous existence. Such a person might misunderstand or misread the signs on the island, as does the narrator of ‘The Wall’, who is sent on a wild goose chase in pursuit of a place that does not exist, or rather he finds it back where he started, a place of misunderstanding. Travel leads somewhere and misleads, though in being misled, one also witnesses much that is not otherwise revealed.
