Description

Agnes Day's life has been one of quiet desperation. A sub editor in suburban limbo, she struggles to make sense of the world around her. Now, as she faces a serious illness, Agnes is forced to confront the gaps in her understanding of reality. As she navigates this uncertain terrain, Agnes's perceptions of herself and others begin to blur. Her experiences are marked by confusion, frustration and a deep-seated feeling of disconnection. Will she be able to find a way back to a sense of coherence, or will her illness prove too great a challenge? This is a powerful exploration of the human condition, one that probes the complexities of identity, relationships and the search for meaning in a chaotic world.
