Two angels drove through the streets in a car. They came to the world at the command of God. Their piercing whistles frightened the surrounding residents - in fact, they only came for a woman named Anna. Anna's husband is a writer and is writing a book about the Czech literary master Hrabal. He was stuck in a bottleneck and had no time to care about anything else. He didn't even know that his wife was pregnant and wanted to give up the child. Anna is a beautiful woman who loves blues music. She fell in love with Hrabal-on a spiritual level. She confided her thoughts, anguish, fantasies and tenderness to Hrabal in her heart. Her outpourings are quiet, deep, and powerful. God was impressed. In order to appease Anna, God decided to learn to play the saxophone from Charlie Parker. Can God succeed?

"A Woman" is composed of 97 sections. Each section is of different lengths, ranging from thousands of words to just one sentence. The 97 sections adopt a method similar to the "fugue" or "canon" in music. Different voices repeatedly sing the same theme alternately. The beginning of each section is "There is a woman," followed by "she loves me", "she hates me", "love" and "hate" alternately.
