Illustration: In a thin-walled apartment, a tenant sits on the edge of a futon while renovation drilling continues beyond the adjoining wall. A shelf trembles slightly, and a hanging pull cord swings beside the tenant's head. One hand presses over an ear; the other hangs limply around a cold cup of tea.
