In this stark and sensorially immersive memoir, a woman documents the slow, inexorable collapse of her world, using the language of domestic decay. Every crack in the plaster, every stain on the ceiling, every rattle in the family car becomes a landmark in a map of a failing marriage and a fractured self. The narrative unfolds not through grand events, but through the obsessive cataloging of small, everyday failures: a crooked picture frame, a dead fly on a windowsill, the cold side of a bed. Told in a voice that is both intimate and unnervingly detached, this is an unflinching look at the textures of silence, the weight of unspoken words, and the terrifying beauty of things falling apart. It is a story lived in the periphery, a chronicle of the hum inside the walls and the quiet unraveling that happens when no one is watching.
