Student Narrative
This book was created during a period of painful separation from my partner where I allowed my feelings of longing for togetherness to envelop me and manifest itself into a narrative about two people in a quiet but cluttered city. Within the absence of people, the wind carries their thoughts, through letters. Melancholy dreams of the others presence, which they could not bare the other to read, they scurry throughout the town and into the world but are never to truly be seen.
