About this audiobook

If you want to know what it feels like to lose your moorings and discover that the body knows things the mind has forgotten, if you're willing to get lost and trust you'll find your way out changed, then this is for you. The novel asks you to read the way Vivienne moves by feel, by instinct, by returning to what's familiar when new pathways close. It asks you to trust repetition as meaning-making device, to understand that some truths need stating multiple times in different contexts before they reveal their full weight.
