An acquaintance at a party becomes a flirtation, becomes a fall, becomes a relationship, becomes a journey, becomes an archive, becomes a book. Becomes a way of thinking about desire, about proximity and distance, about separation, memory, and the act of telling.
This love story of our time—which is every love story of our time—renders, with quiet intensity, the heroine’s inner life; it traces the emotional and linguistic displacements that love sets in motion, and presses upon the wound until it gives way to pain.
