This is a story so intricately woven in its discussion of the human condition, aspects of which pull at different heartstrings, the abject loneliness of the protagonist having possibly crept up, unbidden, at any point in the lives of others. His story is a catharsis that may inspire, even an unsure writer, to pen a thought or two down but also inspire a feeling of community, that in this world of ours, moving fast towards isolation, we are really not alone.
Descartes' Mistress is a piece of experimental, philosophical fiction concerning philosophical implications of a premise we all know - what would happen if everybody disappeared? - in a new radical light.
