International People in the Know is my reflection on interpersonal relations in today’s world. I have chosen both fictitious faces as well as actual faces of real people in my life. The backgrounds suggest no clue as to place, identity or nature of the conversation. I offer only the finality of the implied statement. In some of the faces there is a lingering hint of relating the knowing implication of their comments. Others possess only a sense of innocent use of common use phrases, with special emphasis on the observation that all serious conversations eventually lead to a confirmed answer form of ‘no’.
