Produktbeschreibung

Between Christmas and New Year's the city forgets its own name. In a small, spotless house, one woman keeps the quiet at bay with small, deliberate acts: aligning cutlery, folding receipts into perfect triangles, listening for the exact pitch of a refrigerator whine. Mara Lin's The Quiet Residue is a 28,000-word literary novella in fragments. Each chapter is a single room, a single sound, a single memory of the friend who is no longer there. The friendship did not end in shouting; it ended with the soft click of a latch that never quite closed. What remains is acoustic residue: the fan that refuses to stop, the cold tile no slipper can warm, the echo of a key turning in a lock that now belongs to someone else. Written in spare, sensory prose, the book maps the slow fade of a relationship through the objects and silences it leaves behind. Readers of Jenny Offill, Rachel Cusk, and Lydia Davis will recognize the territory: domestic space as emotional battlefield, ordinary noise as private archaeology.
