About this audiobook
In a domed city where every breath is taxed, Mara pays with pieces of herself to keep her daughter alive.
Each morning the warning chime tightens her ribs: seven points short. Separation looms over every quiet moment: fingers brushing the floor in sleep, a paper bird folded from scrap, the whispered promise “I’ve got you.”
Then one untaxed memory surfaces: real rain drumming metal, laughter cracking open the sky, lightning bright enough to hurt. When Mara lets it rise without suppression, overflow begins—buoyant, dangerous, uncontainable. Smiles ripple across bowed heads. The system notices. Leni is reclassified. Mara must choose: keep paying the daily tax, or risk everything to flood the Ledger with raw, unfiltered feeling and force the world to remember what breath once meant.
A quiet dystopian tale of a mother’s love measured in millilitres and heartbeats, Breath asks what we owe the systems we breathe for—and what happens when one woman finally stops holding back.
