Description

A solitary painter drifts through a life defined by routine, unfinished canvases, and a silence that feels heavier than solitude. Haunted by fragments of a woman from his past and an absence he cannot name, he finds himself drawn into an unsettling intimacy with a voice he has never seen but cannot escape. What begins as sound slowly bleeds into memory, imagination, and art, reshaping his perception of reality and self. As his rituals deepen and his paintings begin to change, the boundary between listening and being heard starts to erode. The city continues its indifferent rhythm, but within him, something fractures quietly, persistently.This novel explores isolation, memory, and the fragile line between inner worlds and external truth. Dark, atmospheric, and psychologically immersive, it unfolds not through sudden shocks but through a creeping sense of unease. It is a story about what happens when silence listens back and refuses to let go.
