[Zero and One] Zero and One is a novella about loss. It is told in the first person by the young girl who has lived the story. This is how she has summarized it in the blurb.
All the people that I have met in my life so far need some form of violence in one way or another…Rosetta used to tell me that the earth is round, so no one would ever be able to see very far…I felt the complete devotion upon me and the weigh you feel when you are the life centre of someone who is not your partner…And the words you wish for so long to hear, change. Something happens to them while you are waiting…
Zero and one and in-between a story, which is whole but never enough. Something that eludes us and make things break. Linear time and circular time. You outgrow the pain and the symptoms are simply transferred. |
