Sometimes, only one person is missing, and the whole world seems depopulated. Alphonse de Lamartine, French author, poet, and statesman, 1790 - 1869.

Following the mysterious disappearance of his long-term partner, novelist Jonathan Day leaves his city apartment & retreats to his cabin in the mountains, there to ponder his devastating loss in the time of the pandemic, to desperately try & understand the nature of his persistent despair, a despair that quickly turns into an existential crisis of harrowing proportions.

In the hope of salvaging what little remains of his sanity, Jonathan joins a local support group to learn he is not the only one to have suffered a loss. At one time or another, says his mentor, Lauren, everything flies away.

In the end, Jonathan is left with two options - come to terms with Siobhán's disappearance or go mad looking for answers that may not even exist.

I do not know & I may never know & to know I may never know is my horror, that I will never know but I will always remember. All that remains is the space where she once was & this is what I must live with - or die with.
