In 2012, fiction writer Eurydice Messas staged her own disappearance from an artists' colony somewhere in the United States. For 16 days, she observed the consequences of her disappearance, drawing from the stories of missing women and comparing the reactions in this small, closed society to the consequences of such disappearances within literature. She asks (and we wonder): Does the literary tradition of the missing girl dictate our response, or merely describe it? When a woman's body is discovered in the woods, readers, like Messas, begin to wonder just how much of an overlap exists between art and life.
