    Summary

    "Only the mortal part of you will die," said the one who had spoken to me all along.

    "Bad luck," I said. "Since that's about all there is to me."

    Summary

    Survival is an artform.
    Armand has been an unwilling student, an eager acolyte, a master of the craft.

    The things he feels can be broken down into component parts. Can be simplified into anatomic essentials, the series of processes required to make him something that functionally resembles the likeness of man. Sensation without thought. Water-damp brushstrokes dragging across a canvas with no paint. No color. No light.

    Leaving Dubai was an act of necessity, arriving anywhere else an act of apathy.


    In which Daniel attempts to make sense of the past and Armand attempts to do whatever the opposite of that is.

    Summary

    Daniel sees life like a river. Thinks he is caught up in a current that only goes one way, that will eventually sweep him out to sea. It’s easier for him to think so. It keeps him alive to think so.

    He doesn’t know that he could stand up and reach the bottom. He doesn’t know he has a choice.


    Drugs don’t work, sex doesn’t work, New York hasn’t worked. Somewhere in the Appalachian Mountains, an improbable number of suicides have taken place. Somewhere in a bar in New York, Daniel hears about them. He wants to fill a void. The difference between what is real and what isn’t matters as little to him as the things he’ll find to throw into the darkness. Which, as it turns out, is quite a lot.

    Summary

    The proximity is irritating, to say the least. The bleating, the squirming, all the while the beast inside him roars with hunger. He would have much rather enjoyed the ballet with its orderly seats, then taken home an inebriated, no-fuss bite to eat from the bar and watched the fireworks from the comfort of his own apartment suite.
    And yet, he chose this over the intricately choreographed tragedy in one act. For Daniel.

    New Year's Eve of 1975: Armand leaves Daniel's side amidst the celebrations to hunt.

    Summary

    Tabula rasa is often translated from latin as "blank slate." There is this idea that when we are born, our minds are pure, untainted, only becoming tarnished as we live.

    Or: the burned pages of Daniel Molloy’s memory, a story that remains untold.
